USB-only outlet, white - recommendations?

[endecotp]

Dear Experts,

I’m redecorating a bedroom. It has an en suite bathroom and the 3m rule limits where I can place sockets. One idea is to place a USB-only outlet to one side of the bed, with the 3m.

I’ve not found many options though. I prefer plain white “unfussy” switches and sockets and would normally use something like MK Logic Plus, but they don’t seem to have a USB-only outlet (except for a grid). The best I’ve seen so far is probably this anonymous product from TLC:

Does anyone have any suggestions, either a specific product or a recommended range?

Does the en-suite have a door?

Even if it does not, I think anyone would be hard-pressed to argue that the 3m. extends to another room.

Oh, that’s interesting. I had always thought that you were not allowed sockets that would allow you to use a heater, radio etc. in the bathroom, plugged in outside the bathroom. In this case the existing socket seems to be 3.01 m from the en suite door, and I assumed that was not a coincidence!

That would be quite sensible reasoning but, as EFLI has said, it's hard to read the regs to be saying that.

The 3m minimum only relates to 'sockets in a bathroom'. If the bathroom has a door, then I don't think that there is any way that it could relate to things outside of 'that room' (the bathroom) - but, as EFLI also said, I doubt that would change even if there were no door, provided that the socket was 'obviously in some other room'.

In fact, I can think of some very small flats which I know (basically bedsits with a small bathroom) in which the end of the bath is very close to the bathroom door, such that a 3m minimum from there which extended outside of the bathroom would be very restrictive in terms of where sockets could be located anywhere within the flat!

Kind Regards, John
