        Point Pod | Pop-Up Power Outlet 1 Power Point 10A 250V | 2 USB Ports (A + C)

        The Point Pod PPCU1 is a motorised pop-up power outlet rated 10A 250V, featuring one Australian standard power socket and two USB charging ports (2.1A each: one USB A and one USB C), finished in silver with white sockets and surrounds. The PPCU1 is designed for benchtop installation and includes a 1.9-metre flex and plug for DIY installation. It complies with IP44 water-resistance standards and carries a 2-year Australian warranty on all parts and labour.

        Kitchen and bench upgrades often leave limited space for visible power outlets and chargers, forcing users to rely on surface-mounted extension leads and power boards that clutter the work surface. The PPCU1 eliminates this problem by nestling flush below the benchtop when not in use, then rising at a touch to deliver power exactly where it is needed. Homeowners and tradies fitting modern kitchens are increasingly specifying pop-up outlets for island benches, peninsulas, and preparation zones where ready power and charging access improve workflow without sacrificing aesthetics.

        The PPCU1 combines power and dual USB charging in a single motorised unit without wasting bench space. The dual USB ports support both USB A and USB C, so devices charge without adapter conversion. Smartphones, tablets, and small appliances can draw power simultaneously from the one outlet and two USB ports. The motorised mechanism is smooth and quiet, with a built-in safety lock that prevents the outlet closing if a plug is inserted. For renovators and installers, the adjustable collar fits any benchtop thickness, making it ideal for aftermarket retrofitting on existing surfaces.

        • Motorised touch up/touch down design — smooth and quiet operation with built-in safety that prevents closure when plugged in.
        • One Australian standard 10A power socket — rated for general-purpose domestic use and suitable for appliances, chargers, and power tools up to 2400W total load.
        • Two 2.1A USB ports (1x USB A + 1x USB C) — dual-standard charging supports both older and newer devices without adapter conversion.
        • IP44 water-resistant rating — suitable for kitchen benchtops and splash zones; dispenses liquids away from electrical contacts to protect safety.
        • Flush benchtop installation — motorised outlet retracts completely below the benchtop surface when not in use, maintaining clean aesthetics.
        • Silver and white finish — anodised aluminium housing matches contemporary kitchen décor and resists fingerprints better than glossy finishes.
        • DIY installation supplied — includes 1.9-metre flex and Australian 10A plug; requires only a 102mm hole and connection to a 10A GPO circuit.
        • Adjustable collar system — fits all benchtop thicknesses from thin veneers to solid timber without adapters or modification.
        • 2400W maximum load rating — equivalent to a 10A circuit breaker; supports multiple devices simultaneously within circuit protection limits.
        • 2-year Australian warranty — covers manufacturing defects and labour on all parts and mechanisms.
        • Cabinet space: 550mm depth required — ensure sufficient clearance behind the benchtop before installation.

        Where to use

        • Island bench and peninsula surfaces — the PPCU1 is widely specified for island and peninsula benchtops in modern kitchens where residents and guests need ready power and charging during food preparation and entertaining.
        • Kitchen preparation zones — benchtop spaces where small appliances (coffee makers, blenders, toasters, rice cookers) are operated daily and phone charging is convenient during cooking.
        • Home office and study desks — provides integrated power and dual-standard USB charging for laptops, monitors, desk lamps, and mobile devices without the need for separate power boards or charging docks.
        • Workshop and hobby benchtops — maintains a clean work surface while supplying power for cordless drill chargers, LED work lights, and portable power tools; the dual USB allows simultaneous charging of cameras or small batteries.
        • New kitchen builds and major renovations — ideal for pre-installation in new custom kitchens and kitchen overhauls where benchtop outlets are designed into the layout from the outset.
        • Rental properties and holiday homes — reduces guest frustration with power access and charging options, minimizing maintenance call-backs and enhancing the appeal of short-term accommodation.

        The PPCU1 is not suitable for outdoor or damp exposed installations, and is rated only for indoor protected benchtop environments where splash is managed and free-draining. Do not install the PPCU1 in outdoor kitchens, covered patios with overhead spray, bathrooms above splashback level, laundries, or locations subject to sustained moisture or salt-air exposure. The IP44 rating handles occasional splash during benchtop use but does not provide weatherproof protection for external applications.

        Verified Sparky Direct customer reviews: Point Pod PPCU1 | Pop-Up Power Outlet 1 Power Point with 2 USB (PPCU1)

        "This point pod looks great in my island bench and has clear me in very handy when It am preparing food. Also handy for recharging phone in kitchen." — Christine

        "Great product. Installed now and a great addition to our new kitchen." — Steve

        (PPCU1)

        The PPCU1 is the compact 1-outlet model with dual USB charging. Point Pod also makes the PPC01 (2 outlets, no USB) and PPM01 (3 outlets with USB-A & USB-C). Choose based on how many power sockets and USB ports your benchtop needs.       

        The PPCU1 is supplied with a flex, plug, and mounting collar for DIY benchtop installation. You cut a 102mm hole, insert the outlet, and plug it into an existing 10A GPO or circuit. However, electrical work may require a licensed electrician in your state — confirm with your local electrical inspector before proceeding.

        Yes. The PPCU1 can supply power to both the standard outlet (up to 2400W total) and the two USB ports (2.1A combined at 5V) simultaneously, provided the total power draw does not exceed the 10A circuit protection feeding the outlet.

        The PPCU1 requires 550mm depth of cabinet space behind the benchtop for the outlet body to recess. Measure your cabinetry before purchase. If your cabinet is shallower than 550mm, the PPCU1 will not fit properly.

        No. The PPCU1 has a built-in mechanical safety feature that prevents the motorised outlet from closing if a plug or USB cable is inserted. This stops accidental disconnection during use.

        The PPCU1 comes with a 2-year Australian warranty covering defects in materials and labour. If you have a fault, contact Sparky Direct with your order details and a description of the issue. We will arrange for the unit to be returned to us for repair or replacement under warranty.
