Fixed Socket PCESP 3P 16A 230V Blue IP44 model 113-6

The PCESP Fixed Socket 3P 16A 230V (model 113-6) is a permanently installed industrial-grade power outlet in blue with IP44 protection. It provides a three-pole connection rated for 16 amps at 230 volts and is intended for environments where protection against splashing water and solid objects is required. The socket is designed for fixed mounting to deliver a reliable mains connection for tools, machinery and temporary power arrangements in workshops, light industrial areas and covered outdoor spaces.

Advantages

This fixed socket offers a standardized three-pole connection compatible with common industrial plugs and is built to deliver consistent 16A/230V power. The IP44 ingress protection rating helps reduce the risk of water spray and particle intrusion, supporting safer use in protected outdoor and workshop conditions. The durable blue housing and secure mounting design promote stable, long-term installation and help minimize accidental disconnection.

Suitable for

• Fixed installation in workshops and light industrial facilities
• Covered outdoor power points, such as under canopies or awnings
• Temporary power distribution for events or construction sites with protected setups
• Connection of hand tools, portable machinery and worksite equipment that require 16A/230V three-pole supply

When it may not be suitable

This IP44-rated socket is not intended for fully exposed outdoor locations where heavy rain, jets of water or prolonged immersion are possible; such situations require higher IP-rated equipment. It is also unsuitable where higher current capacity or additional poles/earth-neutral configurations are required beyond the three-pole 16A specification.

Key specifications

• Poles: 3-pole configuration
• Rated current: 16 A
• Rated voltage: 230 V
• Ingress protection: IP44 (protection against splashing water and solid objects >1 mm)
• Mounting: fixed/permanent installation
• Color: blue housing

How to use

Install the socket on a suitable fixed surface following local electrical regulations and wiring codes. Ensure power is disconnected before connecting supply cables; secure conductors to the correct terminals for the three-pole configuration and tighten terminal screws to the manufacturer’s recommended torque. After wiring, mount the unit firmly, restore power, and test with appropriate equipment to confirm correct voltage and connections. Use only compatible industrial plugs rated for 16A/230V.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that a 3-pole 16A 230V outlet meets the electrical requirements of your equipment
• Verify that IP44 protection is adequate for the intended location (covered outdoor or workshop use)
• Ensure compatibility with existing plugs and connectors used on-site
• Check local codes for fixed socket installation and whether professional installation is required

Usage recommendations

For safe and reliable operation, install the PCESP fixed socket in sheltered locations away from direct water exposure, perform routine visual inspections for damage or wear, and use proper-rated plugs and cables. If the installation environment may be exposed to heavy water or dust, consider devices with higher ingress protection or consult a qualified electrician.
