Power plug Rum-Lux WG-02 IP44 16A 250V straight black

The Rum-Lux WG-02 straight power plug is designed for use with 16A, 250V electrical circuits. Constructed with a compact black housing and rated IP44, this mains connector provides protection against solid objects larger than 1 mm and water splashes, making it suitable for indoor locations and sheltered outdoor installations. The straight form factor simplifies connection of appliances, extension leads and equipment that require a standard 16A power input.

Advantages

How to use

Ensure the circuit is de-energised before connecting or wiring the plug. Strip the cable conductors to the required length and insert them into the corresponding terminals following the manufacturer’s polarity markings. Securely tighten terminal screws and check that the cable clamp holds the outer sheath to prevent conductor strain. After assembly, test the connection in a de-energised continuity and insulation check if available, then plug into a compatible 16A, 250V socket for use.

Usage recommendations

Use the plug in dry or sheltered locations consistent with its IP44 rating. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct rain or high-pressure water jets. Regularly inspect the housing and contacts for signs of wear or damage and replace the plug if integrity is compromised. Do not exceed the rated current and voltage.
