The Siemens 5UB1842-0AC01 is an anthracite Schuko socket outlet from the DELTA style series, designed for flush-mounted indoor use. Its spring-loaded hinged cover snaps shut when the socket is not in use, keeping out dust and preventing accidental contact while maintaining a clean, flush appearance on the wall.

When Would You Specify the Anthracite Variant?

Anthracite is the go-to dark finish for modern and minimalist interiors — it pairs with dark switch plates and frames where a white socket would stand out. The 68×68mm cover plate integrates seamlessly with the standard DELTA style frame system, so the dark tone reads as deliberate design rather than an afterthought.

Installation Notes

The 5UB1842-0AC01 uses plug-in terminals for fast, tool-free wiring and mounts into standard flush-mount back boxes via claw and/or screw fixing. It accepts all CEE 7/4 (Schuko) plugs. The halogen-free thermoplastic housing meets VDE 620 and is RoHS compliant.
