Angle Plug Opal WT-50 2P+Z 16A White — angled mains plug with earth

Opal WT-50 2P+Z 16A White — angled mains plug with earth is a compact, angled power plug designed to provide a low-profile connection for earthed appliances. The white plastic housing integrates an earth contact and two live contacts rated for 16 amperes, making it suitable for common household and light commercial electrical devices. Its angled form reduces cable protrusion from the wall, minimises strain on the cable and connector, and helps maintain a neat installation where space behind the plug is limited.

Advantages

The angled design reduces the distance between the wall and the cable, lowering mechanical stress on the cable and improving cable routing in confined spaces. The white, durable plastic body resists impact and provides electrical insulation. Built for standard 16 A circuits with an earth contact, the plug supports earthed appliances and meets typical safety expectations for domestic use. The compact shape simplifies installations in tight locations such as behind furniture or kitchen cabinets.

Suitable for

• Powering household appliances with earthing contact (e.g., washing machines, refrigerators, vacuum cleaners)
• Use behind furniture, kitchen units, and wall-mounted devices where space is limited
• Light commercial equipment and portable devices requiring a 16 A earthed connection
• Replacing straight plugs when cable routing or clearance is an issue

Key specifications

• Configuration: angled mains plug with earth (2P+Z)
• Rated current: 16 A
• Body colour: white
• Housing material: impact-resistant insulating plastic
• Applications: earthed domestic and light commercial appliances

How to use

Before installation, disconnect power at the socket and ensure compatibility with the mains supply and appliance. Prepare cable ends according to applicable wiring standards, insert conductors into the designated terminals and tighten terminal screws securely to ensure good electrical contact. Confirm that the earth conductor is correctly connected to the earth terminal. After assembly, plug into a compatible earthed socket and verify a stable connection; do not use the plug if any component appears damaged or loose.

Usage recommendations

Use this angled plug where reduced cable protrusion and improved cable routing are needed. Ensure wiring is performed by a qualified person and check terminal tightness periodically. Do not expose the plug to prolonged moisture or mechanical overload beyond its 16 A rating.
