Why Choose the 15A Version

The 15A rating suits higher-draw equipment and longer runs where a standard 10A outlet isn't enough — think caravans, larger appliances and worksite gear fitted with a 15A plug. The 15A socket has a larger earth pin, so it accepts both 10A and 15A plugs, giving you flexibility at a single outdoor point.

What the IP54 Rating Means

IP54 tells you exactly how far this outlet's protection goes: the "5" means it is dust-protected, and the "4" means it is protected against water splashing from any direction. That makes it well suited to sheltered, damp positions — under eaves, on a patio, inside a shed, garage or workshop. It is not rated for direct hosing or full exposure; choose a higher-rated IP66 outlet where high-pressure water jets are expected.

Built for Australian Conditions

The WPGPO2-15 uses a virgin-grade PCA18 plastic body with 316 stainless steel springs and screws for corrosion resistance, and brass current-carrying parts of greater than 85% copper. It carries Australian/New Zealand approval and is interchangeable with other major-brand outlets, so it slots straight into a compliant fit-out or a like-for-like replacement. Note that "double" refers to the two sockets — this is a double-outlet GPO, not a double-pole switched outlet.

Q: What is the difference between the WPGPO2-15 and the WPGPO2?
A: They are the same IP54 weather-protected double power point, but the WPGPO2-15 is rated at 15A while the WPGPO2 is rated at 10A. Choose the 15A version for higher-draw equipment or appliances fitted with a 15A plug.

Q: What does the IP54 rating mean and where can I install it?
A: IP54 means it is dust-protected and protected against splashing water from any direction. It suits sheltered, damp areas such as sheds, patios and under eaves, but not direct hosing or full weather exposure — use an IP66-rated outlet for those.

Q: Is the GEN3 WPGPO2-15 Australian approved?
A: Yes, it is supplied with Australian/New Zealand approval certification and must be installed by a licensed electrician.
