The inlet carries an IP44 rating, protecting against dust ingress and water splashes from any direction, which allows installation in exposed outdoor locations and damp industrial environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for permanent installation where equipment needs a reliable mains feed without trailing extension leads, the inlet suits generator hookups, mobile catering units requiring external power, caravan pitch connections, and workshop tool stations. The inlet accepts a standard IEC 60309 16A 240V plug (2P+E configuration) and provides a secure earth terminal connection. The white base includes two fixing holes for screw mounting to timber, masonry or metal surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe housing measures 122mm high by 71mm wide with a 74mm projection from the mounting surface once installed. The blue and white colour coding follows international standards for 240V single-phase industrial connectors, making the inlet immediately recognisable on site. The moulded thermoplastic casing resists impact and UV degradation, and the brass contact pins inside the blue plug housing maintain conductivity over repeated connection cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e122 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e71 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e74 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlue \u0026amp; White\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP44\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePrimary Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e240V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEarth Terminal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/products_1192545_datasheet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Specification Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat plug standard does this inlet accept?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe inlet accepts IEC 60309 240V 16A 2P+E plugs, which are the blue industrial standard for single-phase 240V connections.
