Weatherproof by Design

The IP66 rating means this socket is fully sealed against dust ingress and protected against powerful water jets from any direction. That makes it a dependable choice for exposed and demanding installations where standard outlets simply will not hold up. The grey ABS enclosure resists impact and the rigours of daily industrial use, while the sealed construction keeps moisture and debris away from live connections.

Built for Higher-Current Three-Phase Loads

Rated at 20A and 500V across a 4-pin round three-phase configuration, this outlet suits heavier three-phase plant and machinery than a 10A equivalent. Manufactured to AS/NZS 3112 and rated for ambient temperatures from -25 to 75 °C, the 56 Series is a long-standing name in Australian industrial wiring. The ABS enclosure and brass contact screws are engineered for durability and secure, low-resistance connections that stand up to vibration and thermal cycling.

Straightforward Installation

Screw terminals accept 2.5-6 mm² rigid or stranded cable, giving installers room to work with a range of conductor sizes. The 1xM25/2xM25 conduit entry options add flexibility for how the outlet is wired into an installation, and the surface-mount design keeps fitting quick and future access simple. Its compact 107 x 101 x 102 mm footprint and 0.7 kg weight make it straightforward to position and mount in tight or awkward locations. The 0.8 N.m terminal tightening torque and clearly marked 3P + E poles help ensure a correct, repeatable termination every time.
