Portable Power Socket Elektromet 16A 400V 5P IP44 (model 921870)

Portable power socket Elektromet 16A 400V 5P IP44 (model 921870) is an industrial-grade five-pole connector designed for temporary three-phase power distribution. The unit provides a secure connection for machinery and equipment that require 16 amps and 400 volts, and its IP44 rating gives protection against solid objects larger than 1 mm and water splashes. The rugged housing and straightforward design make the socket suitable for use in workshops, construction sites, temporary event installations and other locations where a reliable, portable three-phase power outlet is needed.

Advantages

The Elektromet portable socket combines a five-pole configuration for three-phase plus neutral and earth with a robust enclosure that resists mechanical wear and ingress of splashes. Its 16 A current rating and 400 V voltage compatibility match common industrial and professional equipment requirements. The compact, portable form factor simplifies temporary installation and relocation, while clearly marked terminals and a secure locking mechanism support safe and correct connections during routine use.

Suitable for

• Temporary power distribution at construction sites
• Workshops and repair bays powering three-phase tools
• Event installations and outdoor temporary installations with splash exposure
• Portable generators and site power distribution boxes

Key specifications

• Nominal current: 16 A
• Nominal voltage: 400 V (three-phase)
• Poles: 5 (three phases, neutral, earth)
• IP rating: IP44 — protection against solid objects >1 mm and water splashes
• Enclosure: durable, impact-resistant housing suitable for industrial use

How to use

Mount or place the portable socket on a stable surface or attach it to a compatible distribution panel using suitable fasteners. Ensure all supply power is switched off before wiring. Connect incoming supply conductors to the appropriately marked terminals for phases, neutral and earth following local electrical codes. After wiring, verify tightness of terminal connections and integrity of the enclosure seal. When connecting equipment, align the plug with the socket, insert fully and engage any locking mechanism. Always observe rated current and voltage limits and switch off power before disconnecting.

Usage recommendations

Use the socket in environments where splash protection is adequate but not submerged conditions. Inspect seals and terminal tightness periodically, and avoid exposure to corrosive chemicals or prolonged UV if installed outdoors. For installations requiring higher ingress protection or permanent outdoor mounting, select a connector with a higher IP rating and ensure compliance with applicable safety standards and local regulations.
