Portable Rubber Socket PCE 16A 2P+E 230V IP20 TAURUS2 2410-srw

Portable rubber socket PCE 16A 2P+E 230V IP20 TAURUS2 2410-srw is a compact temporary power outlet designed for indoor use where a durable connection is required. The unit provides a standard 16 ampere, two-pole plus earth configuration for single-phase 230V installations. Its rubber housing offers impact resistance and an ergonomic shape that facilitates handling and connection of tools, testing equipment and portable devices in workshops and other indoor work areas.

Advantages

The rubber casing gives improved mechanical protection against shocks and abrasion compared with rigid plastic housings while remaining lightweight for portability. IP20 ingress protection makes the device suitable for controlled indoor environments and minimizes the risk of accidental contact with live parts. The TAURUS2 design focuses on practical use: straightforward mating with compatible plugs, secure earth connection, and a compact form factor that fits temporary power needs without permanent installation.

Suitable for

• Workshop tool connections and machinery testing
• Indoor construction sites and renovation zones where temporary power is required
• Portable testing equipment and measurement devices
• Events or installation tasks in dry indoor environments

Key specifications

• Rated current: 16 A
• Contact configuration: 2-pole + earth (2P+E)
• Rated voltage: 230 V (single-phase)
• Ingress protection: IP20 (indoor use, protection against solid objects >12 mm)
• Housing material: impact-resistant rubber
• Application type: portable/temporary power connections

How to use

Connect the socket to a compatible, properly rated supply cable and secure any cable glands or strain reliefs according to the cable diameter. Ensure the upstream power source is switched off before making or breaking connections. Insert a matching 2P+E plug fully into the socket until it clicks or seats firmly to guarantee contact. Use the unit only in dry indoor environments and avoid exposing the housing to chemicals or excessive heat that could degrade the rubber material.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the socket regularly for signs of wear, cracking or damage to contacts and housing. Replace or service the unit if any damage is visible. Do not use outdoors or in wet environments due to IP20 rating. Verify that the connected load does not exceed 16 A and that all wiring complies with applicable local electrical regulations and safety standards.
