Why it Matters

Automatic switching, built for harsh environments
The 56 Series is Clipsal's heavy-duty industrial range. This is an automatic switching socket — a 2-pole mechanism that switches the outlet as a plug is inserted or withdrawn. It carries an IP66 rating to AS 60529, so it is dust-tight and protected against powerful water jets, and with a -25 to 75 °C operating range and polycarbonate body it holds up where standard socket outlets would not.

Supplied less enclosure
This variant ships without an enclosure, so the socket mechanism can be fitted into your own housing, panel or custom assembly. That gives installers flexibility on compact or non-standard mounting setups where a factory enclosure will not fit. Screw terminals accept 1.5 to 6 mm² rigid or stranded cable, with a cable entry range of 9 to 29 mm.

Australian industrial standards
The socket is built to AS/NZS 3112 and AS/NZS 4417.1 and conforms to EN 60309-2, the international standard for industrial plugs and sockets. It is configured as 1P + N + E, socket-outlet type A, with a straight body shape and blue voltage colour, targeted for the Australian market. The mechanism is mercury free and PVC free, and holds Green Premium status, with tightening torque specified at 0.8 N.m.
