Why it Matters

Built for harsh conditions
The IP66 rating means the enclosure is fully protected against dust and powerful water jets, so this socket holds up in exposed outdoor locations, washdown areas and dusty industrial sites. The ABS housing operates reliably across an ambient range of -25 to 75°C, making it a dependable choice where standard power points would not survive. Phosphor bronze pins provide durable, low-resistance contact for a long service life, and the integrated switch means each outlet can be isolated locally.

High 20A capacity with round pins
Rated at 20A, this outlet handles heavier loads than 10A or 15A points, making it well matched to larger machinery and high-draw industrial equipment. The 3 round pin format is a distinct configuration that prevents accidental interchange with lower-rated flat-pin plugs. Surface mounting with screw terminals rated for 2.5-6mm² conductors keeps wiring secure under vibration, and the 2 x M20 / 1 x M25 conduit entries give flexible cable routing. At 204mm high by 101mm wide and 108mm deep, it provides the extra depth needed for the higher-rated mechanism.

Australian-standard power
Manufactured to AS/NZS 3133 and AS/NZS 3123, this 56 Series outlet meets Australian requirements for weatherproof socket outlets. The 3 round pin format accepts standard Australian 20A round-pin plugs, and the grey housing is a familiar sight across industrial, utility and commercial installations. As a mains-connected device, it should be installed by a licensed electrician to meet the wiring rules.
