Industrial Connector Socket 16A & 32A 3 Pin T 214/ T224

The IEC 60309-2 Industrial Connector Socket series delivers robust, standardised power connectivity for professional and industrial applications. Available in 16A and 32A ratings, these 3P+E, 4-pin sockets are designed to meet the rigorous demands of construction sites, factory floors, workshops, and outdoor installations where reliable electrical connection is non-negotiable.

Constructed from high-grade engineering thermoplastic with brass contacts, this connector socket combines mechanical durability with excellent electrical conductivity. The IP44-rated enclosure provides effective protection against solid particle ingress and water splashing, making it equally suited to indoor and outdoor deployment.

Compliant with IEC 60309-2 and featuring a standardised 6h earth contact position, the series ensures interoperability across international industrial environments, offering contractors, facility managers, and OEM equipment manufacturers a dependable, field-proven connection solution.

Key Features

  • Rated at 16A or 32A at 380–415V AC, covering a broad range of single-phase industrial load requirements.
  • 3P+E pole configuration with standardised 6h earth contact position in full compliance with IEC 60309-2.
  • IP44-rated engineering thermoplastic housing provides reliable protection against dust ingress and water splashing for indoor and outdoor use.
  • High-conductivity brass contacts deliver low contact resistance (≤0.5mΩ), minimising heat generation and energy loss under continuous load.
  • Insulation resistance of ≥10MΩ ensures strong dielectric integrity and safe operation across the rated voltage range.
  • Impact-resistant thermoplastic construction withstands the mechanical stresses typical of construction sites and industrial environments.
  • Secure locking connection mechanism prevents accidental disconnection during operation, enhancing personnel and equipment safety.
  • Screw clamp cable entry enables fast, reliable field termination without specialist tooling, reducing installation time.
  • Wide operating temperature range of −25°C to +40°C and tolerance of up to 95% relative humidity support deployment in challenging climatic conditions.
  • Available in blue and white housing colours to support site colour-coding and voltage identification conventions.

The IEC 60309-2 Industrial Connector Socket series is purpose-built for professional power distribution in environments where standard domestic connectors are inadequate. The 3P+E, 4-pin cable-mount socket is available in 16A and 32A variants, both rated for 380–415V AC at 50/60Hz, providing flexibility across a wide spectrum of single-phase industrial equipment and temporary power supply applications.

The housing is manufactured from engineering thermoplastic selected for its high impact resistance, dimensional stability, and resistance to oils, solvents, and UV exposure commonly encountered on industrial sites. Internal brass contacts are precision-formed to maintain consistent contact pressure over extended service life, achieving a contact resistance of ≤0.5mΩ and an insulation resistance of ≥10MΩ. These parameters ensure minimal voltage drop and robust insulation integrity under continuous duty.

The standardised 6h earth contact position and IEC 60309-2 compliance guarantee full interoperability with compatible plugs and connectors across international markets. The cable-mount, portable-use design combined with a screw clamp termination system makes the socket straightforward to install and redeploy, supporting the dynamic requirements of temporary site power infrastructure and permanent workshop installations alike.

The connector socket employs a screw clamp termination system that applies consistent clamping force to conductor ends, ensuring a gas-tight, vibration-resistant electrical joint suitable for portable and semi-permanent installations. The brass contact inserts are dimensioned and positioned in accordance with IEC 60309-2 to achieve the correct mating geometry at the 6h earth position, guaranteeing correct polarity and earth continuity on every connection cycle.

The IP44 protection class is achieved through precision-moulded thermoplastic housing geometry and integrated sealing features that prevent the ingress of solid objects greater than 1mm and water splashing from any direction. The socket is rated for operation across a temperature range of −25°C to +40°C and relative humidity up to 95%, ensuring consistent electrical performance in both cold-store environments and humid tropical or coastal industrial sites.

  • Industrial power distribution panels and temporary power distribution units on manufacturing sites.
  • Construction site temporary power supply for tools, lighting, and site welfare equipment.
  • Workshop machinery connection points requiring standardised, lockable single-phase power outlets.
  • Portable power systems and generator output connection for mobile or remote site operations.
  • Factory floor equipment connection where frequent plug-in and plug-out cycles demand a durable, low-resistance interface.
  • Outdoor event and entertainment power distribution requiring IP44-rated weatherproof connectivity.
  • Agricultural and horticultural facilities where equipment is regularly moved between power points.
