FAMATEL 1165 Rubber Plug 16A 250V 2P+E IP54 Screw Terminal

The FAMATEL 1165 rubber plug is a high-quality electrical component engineered for reliable performance in professional and industrial settings. Designed to handle a current of 16A and a voltage of 250V, this 2P+E plug provides a secure connection for various electrical devices. Its robust rubber construction ensures durability against mechanical impact, while the IP54 rating offers protection against dust ingress and splashing water, making it suitable for challenging environments.

Advantages

The primary advantage of this plug is its exceptional durability provided by the high-grade rubber housing, which withstands harsh conditions better than standard plastic alternatives. The screw terminal connection system ensures a firm and stable grip on wires, minimizing the risk of loose connections over time. Furthermore, the IP54 ingress protection rating provides peace of mind when working in areas where moisture or dust may be present, ensuring safety and consistent electrical conductivity.

Suitable for

• Industrial machinery and power tools
• Construction site electrical extensions
• Workshop and garage equipment
• Outdoor temporary power connections

When it may not be suitable

This plug is not intended for permanent underwater submersion or high-pressure water jets, as the IP54 rating only covers splashing water. It is also not suitable for high-amperage industrial applications exceeding 16A or for use in environments with explosive atmospheres.

Key specifications

• Rated current: 16A
• Rated voltage: 250V
• Configuration: 2P+E
• Ingress protection: IP54
• Connection type: Screw terminal
• Material: Durable rubber

How to use

To install the plug, unscrew the housing to access the internal terminals. Strip the insulation from your cable ends and insert the wires into the corresponding screw terminals, ensuring a tight connection. Once the wires are secured, reassemble the rubber housing, ensuring the cable gland is tightened properly to maintain the IP54 seal against dust and moisture.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your cable diameter is compatible with the plug's cable gland.
• Ensure the electrical load of your device does not exceed 16A.
• Check if the 2P+E configuration matches your existing socket and wiring system.

Usage recommendations

Always ensure the power supply is disconnected before performing any wiring work. Regularly inspect the rubber casing for cracks or signs of wear to maintain the integrity of the IP54 protection.
