QIXING QX1461 Panel Mount Straight Socket 5 Pin 125A IEC 60309 IP67

Description

The highest-rated straight panel socket.

The QIXING QX1461 is a CEE Form panel-mount straight socket rated 5 pin, 125A, 400V three phase, with an IP67 weatherproof rating. It is a fixed socket – mounted through a panel or wall face – with the inlet facing straight out, so the connected plug projects directly outward from the panel. The 5 pin configuration carries three phases, neutral and earth, suiting heavy three-phase equipment that also needs a neutral. These are European-standard industrial connectors conforming to EN/IEC 60309-2, used wherever a robust, weatherproof, panel-mounted connection is required. At 125A this is the highest-rated socket in the straight range.

What a Straight Panel Socket Does

A panel-mount socket is a fixed socket installed through a wall or panel face, with the contacts facing outward to receive a plug. The straight version sets the inlet perpendicular to the panel, so the plug and its trailing cable project directly outward. The QX1461 is the highest-rated 125A five-pin version, used as a fixed connection point on distribution boards, equipment panels, pillars and walls. Where the connected lead needs to exit at an angle instead, an angled panel socket is used.

Three Phase Plus Neutral

With five pins carrying three phases, neutral and earth, the QX1461 supplies three-phase equipment at 400V and 125A while also providing a neutral. This suits heavy three-phase loads that draw single-phase circuits from the same connection, such as large 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 QX1461 used for?
A: It is a panel or wall-mounted fixed socket with the inlet facing straight out, used as a high-current three-phase connection point on panels, boards and walls. The QX1461 is the 5 pin 125A version, providing three phases plus a neutral.

Q: How is a straight panel socket different from an angled one?
A: A straight panel socket has the inlet facing directly out from the panel, so the plug projects straight outward. An angle socket sets the inlet at 45 degrees, so the plug and cable exit at an angle. The choice depends on the clearance and cable routing at the installation.

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.
