To clarify what ericmark means.
You have 2 of each colour in the back box (6 in total)
Your new socket has link wires of the same colours that you have in the back box
Lets use blue as an example
Connect ONE blue incoming wire to one terminal (That already has a blue link wire)
Connect the OTHER incoming blue wire to the OTHER terminal (That has a blue link wire)
So in each terminal you will have ONLY TWO wires. (Of the same colour)
One INCOMING, and one LINK wire
(I am calling the existing wires incoming)
Repeat for the other two colours. But each terminal still only has TWO wires. when you finish.
