Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is a 4 pin three phase adapter lead used for?

These adapter leads are designed to connect equipment with different 4 pin plug/socket configurations—typically bridging Australian standard connections with reefer-style (ISO container) power outlets used in shipping, events, or temporary site setups.

Can I use these adapter leads with refrigerated shipping containers (reefers)?

Yes, that’s one of their primary use cases. Reefer containers often use 4 pin 32A sockets, and these leads allow you to safely adapt from Australian plugs to reefer-style plugs and vice versa.

Are these adapter leads compliant with Australian standards?

All our adapter leads are assembled and tested in Australia using components that meet relevant AS/NZS electrical safety standards. We use commercial-grade plugs, sockets, and cable to ensure long service life and compliance.

What cable type is used for these adapter leads?

We typically use heavy-duty rubber or flexible industrial-grade cable suited for three phase current and high-load environments. The cable is rated for the amp rating of the plug and built to withstand harsh site conditions.

What’s the difference between the Australian plug/socket and the reefer-style versions?

Australian plugs and sockets follow the AS/NZS 3123 standard, while reefer-style connections are based on international configurations commonly found in refrigerated shipping containers. The adapter ensures safe and correct phase alignment between these types.

Can I get a custom length or configuration?

Yes, we can manufacture custom-length adapter leads or modify ends depending on your specific site or equipment requirements. Contact our team for tailored solutions.
