Do I need a fused outlet or a socket?
A socket is for anything you plug in and unplug. A fused connection unit, often called a fused spur, is for equipment that stays wired in — water heaters, extractor hoods, towel rails, built-in ovens, pumps. It spurs off the circuit, adds a fuse sized for that one appliance, and gives a local switch so it can be isolated for servicing without going to the board.
Switched, neon or front flex outlet?
Double-pole switched breaks line and neutral together, which is what you want on anything that will be serviced. Neon adds an indicator so you can see at a glance that the appliance is live — useful for a water heater tucked out of sight. Front flex outlet brings the appliance flex out through the faceplate instead of behind it, the usual choice where cable runs on the surface.
Which fuse goes inside?
The cartridge fuse is chosen for the appliance rather than the circuit — typically 3A for controls and small loads, 13A for heaters and motors. Read the appliance rating plate. Swapping a faceplate on an isolated circuit is straightforward; running a new spur, or a 25A or 45A unit feeding a fixed heater, is work for a licensed electrician. Plates come in white, dark grey and wine gold for matching an existing finish.
