Both in RS catalogue but you may need to adapt the face of the inverter with a plate

Sticking with the same site, see PL00702 and/or PL00703.

Needs to be surface mounted, not a panel mount.

lot easier to repair it, you'd have done it already by now.

Being more specific about the problem in the first place would have been a lot more assistance for the people that were able to use their knowledge in trying to help.

OK, but I did say "...like this".

So, any suggestions?

Contact the manufacturer of the device

Second try, this time I won't try to make it easy for you by lying!

I want a small 13A outlet socket, 6cm square, preferably in black, like the one on this:

Just stick a rubber trailing socket on the front eg:

Being rubber it won't get broken again :)

Or this might be close enough:

cheers, Pete.

That is exactly what I want!

Was it cracked when you bought it from Lidl,Aldi,Netto?

Damn just threw half a dozen of them sockets out.
