QIXING QX1117 CEE Form 4 Pin 63A Extension Socket IEC 60309 IP67

Description

A high-current three-phase in-line socket.

The QIXING QX1117 is a CEE Form extension socket rated 4 pin, 63A, 400V three 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 QX1110) to extend a power run. The 4 pin configuration carries three phases and earth, with no neutral, suiting heavy three-phase equipment. These are European-standard industrial connectors conforming to EN/IEC 60309-2, used wherever a robust, weatherproof, high-current connection is required. The 6h clock position keys the connector to its voltage band, helping prevent connection to an incompatible supply.

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 QX1117 is the high-current 63A three-phase version, used to build heavy three-phase extension leads and power tails. It mates with a matching 4 pin 63A plug such as the QX1110.

High-Current Three Phase

With four pins carrying three phases and earth, the QX1117 supplies three-phase equipment at 400V and 63A without a neutral. This makes it suited to heavy three-phase loads such as larger motors, distribution and site power. Rated IP67, it is protected against dust and the effects of temporary immersion in water, making it suitable for 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 connector’s 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 QX1117 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 QX1110) to extend a high-current three-phase power run. The QX1117 is the 4 pin 63A version.

Q: Is the QX1117 single phase or three phase?
A: It is three phase. The 4 pin configuration is three phases and earth at 400V, with no neutral. The 3 pin versions are single phase, and 5 pin versions add a neutral.

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.
