ELEKTROPLAST 61.385 Double Socket 2P+Z IP44 White with Smoked Flap

The ELEKTROPLAST 61.385 double socket is a robust electrical component designed for reliable power distribution in environments where protection against external factors is essential. Featuring a 2P+Z configuration with grounding, this unit ensures safe operation for various electrical devices. The inclusion of a smoked protective flap adds a layer of security against dust and splashes, while the white finish provides a clean, professional appearance suitable for both residential and commercial utility spaces.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this double socket is its IP44 ingress protection rating, which effectively shields the internal components from moisture and solid particles. This makes it a highly durable choice for areas prone to humidity or dust. The integrated smoked flap not only protects the sockets when not in use but also offers a discreet aesthetic that blends well with various interior styles. Its sturdy construction ensures long-term reliability and consistent electrical connectivity under standard operating conditions.

Suitable for

• Garages and workshops
• Utility rooms and basements
• Covered outdoor areas such as patios or porches
• Kitchens or laundry areas where moisture exposure is possible

When it may not be suitable

This socket is not intended for direct exposure to heavy rain, water jets, or submerged conditions, as the IP44 rating only provides protection against splashing water. It should not be installed in areas requiring higher ingress protection levels, such as industrial wash-down zones or areas with high chemical exposure.

Key specifications

• Configuration: 2P+Z (Double socket with grounding)
• Protection rating: IP44

How to use

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure compliance with local safety regulations.

Ensure that the power supply is disconnected before beginning the installation process. Once securely mounted and wired, the smoked flap can be lifted to access the sockets and closed when the plugs are removed to maintain the protective seal.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the mounting surface is suitable for the socket dimensions
• Ensure the electrical circuit is compatible with the 2P+Z grounding standard
• Check if the IP44 rating meets the specific environmental requirements of your installation site

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the smoked flap for any signs of damage or wear to ensure the IP44 seal remains effective. Keep the socket area clean and free from excessive debris to maintain optimal performance and safety.
