Socket outlet Karlik 7DGPB-1zd 16A 250V IP44 splash-proof

Karlik 7DGPB-1zd is a splash-proof recessed socket outlet rated for 16 A and 250 V with IP44 protection. It is intended for fixed electrical installations and provides basic protection against water splashes and ingress of solid objects, making it suitable for damp indoor areas and sheltered outdoor locations. The socket supports standard 2P+E connections and fits within the DECO family of products; DECO mechanisms and frames are sold separately.

Advantages

The Karlik 7DGPB-1zd combines IP44 splash protection with a standard 16 A / 250 V rating for common household circuits. Its recessed design is made for flush mounting in walls, and compatibility with standard 2P+E plugs ensures straightforward installation in most residential and light-commercial settings. It can be used with DECO illuminated or hermetic accessories, when the corresponding light module or sealant is purchased separately.

Suitable for

• Bathrooms and toilets with splash exposure (mounted away from direct water jets)
• Kitchens and utility rooms where occasional splashes may occur
• Garages, workshops and covered outdoor areas sheltered from direct rain
• Fixed wall installations with standard 2P+E wiring

When it may not be suitable

This IP44 socket is not intended for locations exposed to direct water jets or continuous immersion. It should not be used in fully outdoor, unprotected environments or near sources of high humidity without additional protective measures. For zones requiring higher protection (for example IP65 or IP67) or for devices exposed to direct spray, choose a dedicated higher-rated enclosure or product.

Key specifications

• Rated current: 16 A
• Rated voltage: 250 V
• Ingress protection: IP44 (splash-proof)
• Mounting: recessed (flush) wall mounting
• Connection: standard 2P+E (two poles plus earth)

How to use

Install the socket as a fixed recessed unit within a suitable flush-mount box following local electrical codes. Ensure power is disconnected before wiring and connect phase, neutral and earth conductors to the corresponding terminals. After mounting, fit the chosen DECO mechanism and frame (sold separately). If using an illuminated version or hermetic option, purchase and install the compatible light module or sealant separately; note that some DECO switch models are not compatible with certain modules and sealants.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the IP44 rating meets the required protection level for the intended location
• Confirm compatibility with your existing DECO mechanisms and frames, which are sold separately
• Decide whether you need an illuminated version or hermetic sealant and purchase the corresponding accessory separately
• Verify that 16 A / 250 V ratings match your circuit requirements and local electrical regulations

Usage recommendations

The Karlik 7DGPB-1zd is best used in indoor damp zones and sheltered outdoor spots where occasional splashes occur; avoid installation where the socket would be exposed to direct spray or prolonged wetting. For illuminated switches or hermetic installations, add the appropriate DECO light module or sealant as needed, checking compatibility with the specific switch model.
