Why it Matters

Made for chemical exposure
The chemical-resistant orange housing is formulated to withstand corrosive splashes and aggressive cleaning agents that would degrade a standard socket, and the high-visibility orange makes the outlet easy to spot in busy plant. The IP66 rating means the enclosure is fully sealed against dust and powerful water jets, so it holds up in washdown zones, chemical stores and processing areas. The housing operates across an ambient range of -25 to 75°C, and phosphor bronze pins give durable, low-resistance contact for a long service life.

Higher 15A capacity
Rated at 15A, this outlet suits heavier loads than a standard 10A point, making it well matched to larger portable equipment and appliances that draw more current. Surface mounting with screw terminals rated for 1.5-6mm² 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 83mm deep, it mounts neatly onto walls, posts and plant.

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 flat pin format accepts standard Australian 15A plugs, and the orange housing signals a chemical-resistant fitting across industrial, utility and processing installations. As a mains-connected device, it should be installed by a licensed electrician.
