Product details
A 16A 230V 3-pin in-line socket from Europa Components, sealed to splash-proof IP44. Wired to the supply end of a flexible cable it turns a length of cable into a portable outlet - the standard way of reaching plant that cannot be parked beside a fixed socket-outlet.
Key features
- Rated 16A at 230V, 2P + E (3-pin), to the IEC 60309 industrial connector pattern
- IP44 splash-proof rating for sheltered, indoor and covered positions
- Single-phase wiring: line, neutral and earth
- Trailing pattern for making up extension leads, machine drops and generator tails on flexible cable
- Genuine Europa Components product, supplied direct at trade prices
Typical applications
On site and around the workshop that means hand tools, bench machinery, task lighting, small pumps and exhibitor or trader stands. IP44 suits sheltered positions - workshops, plant rooms, covered site areas - where splashing rather than standing water is the risk. Choose the same rating, pin count and voltage band as the plug that will go into it, and size the flexible cable for the load and the run length, not just for the connector.
Compliance
Europa build this range to the IEC 60309 pattern (BS EN 60309-2 as adopted here), which sets the 3-pin arrangement and the blue coding for the 200-250V band - the reason kit from different suppliers connects without adaptors. IP44 means protection against solid objects larger than 1mm and against water splashed from any direction. The connector gives no overload or short-circuit protection itself; that stays with the protective device on the circuit feeding it, alongside the RCD protection BS 7671 requires.
