QIXING QX552 CEE Form 3 Pin 32A Extension Socket IEC 60309 IP67

Description

A weatherproof single-phase in-line socket.

The QIXING QX552 is a CEE Form extension socket rated 3 pin, 32A, 230V single phase, with an IP67 weatherproof rating. It is the female in-line connector – fitted to the end of a flexible lead, it receives a matching plug (such as the QX290) to extend a power run. These are European-standard industrial connectors conforming to EN/IEC 60309-2, used wherever a robust, weatherproof connection is required. The 6h clock position keys the connector to the standard single-phase voltage band, helping prevent connection to an incompatible supply. Note: Compatible with QX552 and SINDR equivalents. Brand supplied may vary based on availability.

What an Extension Socket Does

An extension socket is the female in-line connector fitted to the end of a flexible lead. It receives a matching plug to extend a power run, and is the trailing partner to the plugs and inlets in the range. The QX552 is the 32A single-phase version, a step up from the 16A for heavier single-phase loads. It mates with a matching 3 pin 32A plug such as the QX290.

Weatherproof Single-Phase Connection

Rated 32A and IP67, the QX552 is protected against dust and the effects of temporary immersion in water, suiting outdoor, wash-down and demanding industrial locations. As an IEC 60309-2 connector it follows the international pin-and-sleeve standard, so it mates reliably with other IEC 60309 equipment of the same rating and configuration.

Keyed for Safety

The 6h clock position refers to the keyed position of the earth contact under IEC 60309, which corresponds to the standard single-phase voltage band. This keying helps ensure the socket only connects with a matching plug of the correct voltage rating and configuration.

Q: What is the QX552 used for?
A: It is the female in-line connector fitted to the end of a flexible lead. It receives a matching plug (such as the QX290) to extend a single-phase power run. The QX552 is the 3 pin 32A version.

Q: Is the QX552 single phase or three phase?
A: It is single phase. The 3 pin configuration is active, neutral and earth at 230V. Four and five pin versions are three phase.

Q: What does IP67 mean for this socket?
A: IP67 means it is fully protected against dust and can withstand temporary immersion in water, suiting outdoor and wash-down environments.
