QIXING QX288 CEE Form 5 Pin 16A Extension Plug IEC 60309 IP67

Description

A compact 5-pin three-phase plug.

The QIXING QX288 is a CEE Form extension plug rated 5 pin, 16A, 400V three phase, with an IP67 weatherproof rating. It is a straight IEC 60309-2 plug – the male connector fitted to the end of a flexible lead, which plugs into a matching CEE Form socket or connector to draw power. The 5 pin configuration carries three phases, a neutral and earth, making it suited to three-phase equipment that also requires a neutral. 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 its voltage band, helping prevent connection to an incompatible supply.

What an Extension Plug Does

An extension plug is the male connector fitted to the end of a flexible lead. It plugs into a matching CEE Form socket or connector to draw power, and is the partner to the in-line connectors and socket outlets in the range. The QX288 is the 5-pin straight version, with the cable entering in line with the body. It suits assembling three-phase extension leads and power tails that also carry a neutral.

Three Phase Plus Neutral

With five pins carrying three phases, a neutral and earth, the QX288 supplies three-phase equipment at 400V and 16A while also providing a neutral. This makes it suited to lighter loads that need both three-phase power and a neutral-referenced supply. 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 plug only connects with a matching socket of the correct voltage rating and configuration.

Q: What is the QX288 plug used for?
A: It is the male connector fitted to the end of a flexible lead, which plugs into a matching CEE Form socket or connector to draw power. The QX288 is the straight, 5 pin 16A three-phase version.

Q: What is the difference between the QX288 and the 4 pin QX282?
A: The QX288 has 5 pins (three phases, neutral and earth), while the QX282 has 4 pins (three phases and earth, no neutral). Both are 16A 400V straight plugs.

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