Power adapter QOLTEC CEE 32A 5P 400V socket to SCHUKO 230V max 16A 3.5 kW

The QOLTEC power adapter converts a three‑phase CEE 32A 5‑pole 400V supply into a single‑phase SCHUKO 230V outlet with a maximum output current of 16A and a rated power of 3.5 kW. It is designed for temporary use where 230V devices must be powered from industrial 400V sockets, providing a simple and compact solution for sites that lack dedicated single‑phase supply. The adapter integrates overcurrent protection within its rated limits and is intended for portable and intermittent applications rather than permanent installation.

Advantages

The adapter permits safe conversion from a CEE 32A 400V socket to a standard SCHUKO 230V plug, enabling the use of common 230V equipment on three‑phase supply points. Its rated maximum output current of 16A and power limit of 3.5 kW are clearly defined for predictable performance. The unit is compact and straightforward to connect, reducing the need for additional wiring or permanent modifications to the power supply. Built‑in protection prevents overload within the adapter’s specified limits, supporting safer temporary operation on construction sites, workshops and mobile installations.

Suitable for

• Temporary power supply of 230V hand tools and small machinery on construction sites
• Workshop equipment and portable devices requiring up to 16A at 230V
• Mobile power setups, event equipment and temporary installations fed from industrial sockets

Key specifications

• Input: CEE 32A 5‑pole, three‑phase 400V
• Output: SCHUKO 230V single‑phase outlet
• Maximum output current: 16A
• Rated power: 3.5 kW
• Intended use: temporary / portable connection, not for permanent installation
• Protection: overcurrent protection within rated limits

How to use

Connect the adapter’s CEE plug to a compatible 32A 5‑pole 400V socket that is de‑energized when making the connection. Ensure the supply is capable of the required conversion and that downstream devices do not exceed 16A or 3.5 kW combined. After secure connection, switch on the supply and plug the 230V equipment into the SCHUKO outlet. Monitor the load during operation and disconnect the adapter before performing any maintenance or if the adapter or connected devices become hot, noisy or emit unusual odors.

Usage recommendations

Use the adapter only for temporary or portable applications and avoid permanent wiring modifications. Verify that connected equipment’s combined current does not exceed 16A and that the installation meets local electrical safety regulations. If continuous single‑phase power is required, consult an electrician to provide an appropriate dedicated supply rather than relying on this adapter for permanent use.
