Elektromet GTS 63/5 Angled Panel Socket 63A 400V 5P IP67 3P+N+E

The Elektromet GTS 63/5 is a professional-grade angled panel-mounted industrial socket engineered for robust performance in demanding electrical environments. Designed to handle a current of 63A and a voltage of 400V, this 5-pin connector (3P+N+E) provides a secure and stable power interface for heavy-duty machinery and industrial equipment. With its IP67 ingress protection rating, the unit is fully protected against dust ingress and the effects of temporary water immersion, making it a reliable choice for outdoor or harsh indoor settings.

Advantages

This industrial socket offers exceptional durability due to its high-quality construction materials, ensuring long-term reliability even under continuous operational stress. The angled design facilitates easier cable management and connection in tight spaces, reducing mechanical strain on the plug and socket interface. Its IP67 rating provides peace of mind in environments where moisture, rain, or dust are present, maintaining electrical integrity and safety standards. The 5-pin configuration ensures compatibility with standard three-phase power systems, providing a versatile solution for various industrial applications.

Suitable for

• Industrial manufacturing facilities and workshops
• Construction sites requiring temporary power distribution
• Outdoor electrical installations exposed to weather
• Heavy machinery power supply connections
• Agricultural equipment and processing plants

When it may not be suitable

This socket is not intended for standard residential household use, as it requires a 400V three-phase power supply and professional installation. It is also not suitable for low-voltage appliances or environments where a lower IP rating would suffice, as the heavy-duty design may be unnecessary and cumbersome for light-duty applications.

Key specifications

• Current rating: 63A
• Voltage rating: 400V
• Configuration: 5-pin (3P+N+E)
• Protection rating: IP67
• Mounting type: Angled panel-mounted

How to use

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical regulations. The socket is designed to be mounted onto a panel or enclosure surface. Ensure that the power supply is completely disconnected before beginning the installation. Connect the phase, neutral, and earth conductors to the corresponding terminals within the socket housing. Once wired, secure the socket to the panel using appropriate fasteners and ensure the gasket is properly seated to maintain the IP67 seal. Verify all connections for tightness before restoring power.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your power supply is 400V three-phase
• Ensure the panel mounting surface can support the weight and size of a 63A socket
• Check that your existing plugs match the 5-pin 3P+N+E configuration
• Confirm the environmental conditions require an IP67 rating

Usage recommendations

Always inspect the socket for any signs of physical damage or debris before inserting a plug. Ensure that the plug is fully engaged and the locking mechanism is secure to maintain the integrity of the IP67 seal during operation.
