Schuko Type F Socket

Name: Schuko Type F Sockets | Type F Outlets | European Power Sockets - Frigate
Price: 249.00 USD
Availability: InStock

Handling frequent insertions, thermal buildup, and varied wall types creates challenges for sourcing a dependable Type F sockets. Our Schuko socket delivers with high-retention terminals, 230V ±10% support, and up to 16A continuous load, backed by IP66 sealing for outdoor use.

Voltage Rating

230V AC ±10%, 50Hz (400V 3-phase industrial variant available)

Current Rating

16A continuous (25A peak for ≤30min), 20A high-temp version with silver-alloy contacts

IP Rating

IP20 (standard), IP44 (shuttered), IP66 (outdoor with compression gasket)

Terminal Type

Dual clamping screws (accepts 1.5-6mm² solid/stranded), torque-limited (0.8Nm)

Material Construction

Polycarbonate-ABS blend (Vicat 125°C), optional: Glass-reinforced nylon for 90°C ambient

Product Description

Unlike generic variants, it accepts 1.5 to 6mm² wires with torque-limited screw terminals, and supports high ambient temperatures up to 90°C using glass-reinforced nylon. It maintains less than 5mΩ contact resistance even after extended aging, helping reduce fire risks and power losses in long-term use.

Mounting Type

60mm round backbox (DIN 49073), surface-mount adapter for 40mm boxes

Safety Certifications

EN 60669-1, VDE 0620-1, GOST 7396.1 (EAC), OVE E8621 (Austria)

Color Options

Standard: RAL 9010/9005/9006 • Custom: Any RAL/Pantone (conductive paints excluded)

Dimensions

Customizable faceplate dimensions (typical range: 80-100mm square) • Adjustable depth (25-50mm) • Non-standard shapes available

Operating Temperature Range

-40°C to +70°C (125°C ceramic terminal version)

Lifespan Rating

15,000 cycles (EN 60669-1 tested), 30,000-cycle hospital grade

Country/Region Compatibility

Full EU compliance (including UK BS 1363 adaptor compatibility)

Contact Resistance

3mΩ initial, <5mΩ after aging (per IEC 60884-1)

Backbox Compatibility

Ø60mm round (compatible with Hager, Legrand, ABB systems)

Breaking Capacity

6kA (10kA with arc-quenching chamber option)

Fire Resistance

GLOW WIRE 850°C (IEC 60695-2-12), UL94 5VA rated

Technical Advantages

We designed the terminal block to reduce wiring time and misfit errors. Dual clamping screws with torque stops prevent over-tightening and match both solid and stranded wires. Each housing is molded from Vicat 125°C-grade PC-ABS or glass-filled nylon to resist deformation under heat load.

Optional ceramic terminal models extend use up to 125°C internal temps, and arc-quenching chambers boost break capacity to 10kA. The fire rating meets both GLOW WIRE 850°C and UL94 5VA, ensuring it won’t ignite during overloads or insulation failures. VDE and GOST certifications ensure full EU and EAC project approval

Industry Applications

Consumer Appliance Manufacturing

Fits into DIN 49073 round boxes, ensuring compatibility with all major appliance frames without adapter modifications.

Smart Home Electrical Panels

Supports standard 60mm mounting with shuttered IP44 options for safer installs near HVAC units and kitchen modules.

Medical Equipment Workstations

Hospital-grade 30,000-cycle version meets EN 60669-1 for reliable use in high-contact environments like labs or ICU walls.

Modular Office Furniture Systems

Low-profile 25mm depth allows flush installation into pre-wired workstations, even with limited wall cavity space.

Construction Site Distribution Boards

IP66-rated variant withstands dust, water spray, and mechanical stress in temporary outdoor setups and jobsite panels.

Cold Storage and Refrigeration Panels

-40°C to +70°C range and sealed terminals prevent cracking or condensation faults under thermal cycling and frost exposure.

Built for Projects That Demand Fit

Every socket is made to fit standard European backboxes while offering mechanical and environmental options for special builds. We support RAL and Pantone matching for large OEM projects with optional branding and faceplate dimensions.

Each unit ships with compliance documentation including EN, VDE, and GOST certificates, and country-specific compatibility notes. For panel builders and product OEMs, we offer batch-labeled sockets with full torque, resistance, and temperature test results for quality audits.

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

Can we use your Type F socket in panels with mixed backbox formats?

Yes, our socket mounts in 60mm DIN round backboxes and adapts to 40mm depths using our optional surface kit. The terminal design doesn’t require changes even if you swap box types. This avoids delays during panel layout revisions.

Is silver alloy available for higher current cycles in industrial setups?

Yes, we offer a 20A high-temp variant with silver alloy contacts for thermal stability during long-duty machine operation. It supports up to 25A for short bursts. No change in footprint or mounting is needed.

Do you supply with pre-installed faceplates or just socket modules?

We ship both configurations depending on order volume. Modules come with optional snap-fit faceplates or screw-fixed ones in RAL 9010/9005/9006. Custom branding and labeling are available for OEMs.

How do you manage part traceability for safety audits or product recalls?

Each socket has a batch-labeled body with QR or laser code, linking to resistance, insulation, and torque test logs. These are stored on our server for 7 years. We include physical test data with shipments for traceable QA.

Are your sockets compatible with UK adapter plugs for export models?

Yes, we test our Type F units with BS 1363 adapter tolerances to avoid loose contact or damage. The sockets stay within <5mΩ even after repeated insertion. This helps reduce warranty issues in export appliances.
