Dual Sided for Easy Access

Press the top and it fully pops up showing a receptacle on one side, and USB charging on the other, this makes it convenient to plug in your small appliances and mobile devices from either side of the pop up. The receptacle on one side of the pop up outlet is upside down, allowing you to plug in larger style plugs.

The pop up has been tested to achieve a spill proof rating for the outlet in the closed position and open position. Silicone gasket seals keep water from entering the outlet, and the inner mechanics and electrical of the pop up. The 15A plug is waterproof rated and feature tamper resistant sockets to meet code.

The top of the pop up is 4.55” round, and the bezel is an extremely thin .09” thick.  When pressed, the power only pops up 1.70” above the countertop. The outlets are a very modern looking all gloss black finish. The pop up takes up 4.55” of space under a 3cm thick countertop.

Quick Installation on a GFCI Circuit

To install, cut a 4″ round hole, hardwire your wires up to the bottom of the pop up, drop the pop up in the hole, and secure by tightening the lock nut to the underside of the counter. The pop up can accept non-metallic sheathed cable, and/or metal conduit by using a wire clamp or 1/2″ knock out. The pop up needs to be fed by a GFCI protected circuit, typically done from a GFCI switch at the electrical panel, or tapped off of a nearby GFCI line.
