The TIP-213NM Weatherproof Socket Outlet is part of the IP66 Industrial Weatherproof Series, engineered to deliver dependable outdoor electrical access where standard socket outlets would be inadequate. Combining a robust UV-stabilised polycarbonate housing with a transparent impact-resistant cover, this unit is purpose-built to withstand continuous exposure to rain, dust, humidity, and UV radiation.
Rated at 13A / 250V AC and configured to British Standard socket specifications, the TIP-213NM is suitable for surface-mounted wall installation across a wide range of demanding environments. Its switched socket design adds an additional layer of operational safety, allowing the circuit to be isolated without disconnecting the plug.
Targeting electrical contractors, facility managers, and industrial operators, this socket outlet provides a practical and durable solution wherever weatherproof power access is required — from construction sites and agricultural facilities to marine areas and commercial outdoor installations.
The TIP-213NM Weatherproof Socket Outlet is constructed from UV-stabilised polycarbonate, a material selected for its exceptional resistance to impact, chemical exposure, and ultraviolet degradation. The transparent smoke-tinted cover is manufactured from the same impact-resistant material, providing physical protection to the socket face while maintaining visibility of the connected plug. The white body and smoke transparent cover combination offers a clean, professional appearance suitable for both industrial and commercial installations.
The IP66 degree of protection — verified against total dust ingress and high-pressure water jets — makes the TIP-213NM appropriate for environments where standard weatherproof ratings would be insufficient. The lockable cover mechanism ensures the socket remains sealed when not in use, preventing moisture accumulation inside the socket recess and deterring unauthorised use.
Designed for surface mounting, the TIP-213NM can be installed directly onto flat wall surfaces, conduit systems, or enclosure panels. The British Standard 13A socket configuration ensures compatibility with standard BS plugs widely used across the UK, Malaysia, Singapore, and other markets adopting the BS wiring system. Installation by a qualified electrician is recommended to ensure compliance with local wiring regulations.
The TIP-213NM incorporates a switched 13A socket mechanism rated at 250V AC, 50/60Hz, providing a local isolation point at the outlet. The switching contacts are designed to handle the rated load current reliably under the thermal and mechanical stresses associated with frequent switching cycles. Screw-type terminals accommodate standard fixed-wiring conductors, ensuring a secure and durable electrical connection that resists loosening due to vibration or thermal cycling.
The IP66 sealing is achieved through precision-moulded gaskets and a close-tolerance cover assembly that prevents water and dust ingress even under sustained exposure. The polycarbonate housing material provides a high dielectric strength, contributing to the overall electrical safety of the assembly under wet and humid operating conditions.
