The IP44 rating provides protection against solid objects larger than 1mm and water splashes from any direction, making it suitable for workshop, warehouse and outdoor covered installation where equipment needs protection from dust and weather exposure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for fixed installation on walls, machinery housings and distribution boards, the angled configuration orients the socket face at approximately 45 degrees from the mounting surface, reducing strain on cables when equipment is plugged in. The socket accepts standard 32A 415V 3P+N+E industrial plugs and is rated for continuous operation at full load. The PG21 cable gland accepts cables with outer diameters between 13-18mm, and a PG21 to M20 adaptor is included in the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe red body indicates the 415V voltage class under IEC 60309 industrial connector colour coding, where red denotes 380-415V 3-phase. The white mounting base is impact-resistant polycarbonate with two mounting holes positioned 55mm apart vertically. The socket measures 145mm high, 71mm wide and projects 102mm from the mounting surface when installed. Brass terminals inside the socket body accept solid or stranded copper conductors up to 6mm² cross-sectional area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e145 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\u003e102 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed \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\u003e415V\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\/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_1060063_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 does the IP44 rating mean in practice?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIP44 provides protection against solid objects larger than 1mm (dust, small tools, wire) and water splashes from any direction. The socket can be used outdoors under a covered area such as a canopy or overhang, but is not rated for direct exposure to heavy rain or submersion. It suits workshop and warehouse environments where occasional water contact may occur.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat cable size does the PG21 gland accept?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PG21 cable gland accepts cables with outer diameters between 13mm and 18mm.
