never seen one myself.


You could put two single sockets in a dual box mounted vertically.
Otherwise I've never seen anything like this and doubt whether it
would save any space since the top plug flex has to clear the
bottom plug.


But how would you fix the sockets into the box? Surely the threads would be
90 degrees out?


MK do a dual surface box (takes two normal single items) which is
slightly wider than a 'double' box. It has lugs and screw holes on all
sides of each section, so you can mount the items any way up. K2025WHI
was the one I used.
