Outdoor Weatherproof Sockets (IP66)

Protecting outdoor electrical points becomes difficult when exposure to dust and water leads to repeated failures. Our IP66 Outdoor Weatherproof Sockets shields terminals using sealed polycarbonate enclosures and stainless steel fixings to ensure long-term reliability.

Voltage Rating

230V AC, 50Hz (400V 3-phase industrial variant)

Current Rating

16A continuous (25A inrush for 10ms)

IP Rating

IP66 (protected against powerful water jets and dust ingress)

Terminal Type

Corrosion-resistant screw terminals (1.5-4mm² conductors)

Material Construction

UV-stabilized polycarbonate (UL94 V-0) + stainless steel (316) hardware

Product Description

Unsealed units risk corrosion, frequent maintenance, or short circuits. This socket provides stable 230V AC output with gold-plated contacts for low resistance even in wet or dusty sites. 

Mounting Type

Wall/pole mount (M6 stainless fixings included)

Safety Certifications

IEC 60309-2, IP66 tested (EN 60529), CE, UKCA

Color Options

Grey (RAL 7035), Black (RAL 9005) – custom colors available

Dimensions

120 × 90 × 60mm (excluding cable gland)

Operating Temperature Range

-40°C to +60°C (maintains IP66 rating)

Lifespan Rating

10,000 mating cycles (tested with contamination)

Country/Region Compatibility

EU/UK compliant (interchangeable plug types)

Contact Resistance

≤5mΩ (gold-plated contacts optional)

Backbox Compatibility

Integrated enclosure (IP66 rated standalone)

Breaking Capacity

6kA (fault-protected models available)

Fire Resistance

Glow-wire 850°C (IEC 60695-2-11)

Technical Advantages

Outdoor sockets need sealed performance, corrosion resistance, and easy installation. Our IP66-rated unit uses UV-stabilized polycarbonate housing with stainless 316 hardware to meet outdoor electrical demands. 

Its sealed backbox avoids using extra enclosures while keeping all parts dry under jet spray. Tested over 10,000 plug-in cycles, this unit works in tough zones without early wear or contact failures.

Industry Applications

Construction Sites

Handles tools and lighting in harsh weather without interruptions or failures. 

Outdoor Manufacturing Units

Powers process equipment while keeping dust and spray out of terminals. 

Public Charging Bays

Supplies secure power for kiosks and chargers with zero water ingress. 

Railway and Metro Yards

Supports inspection tools and lights under heavy rain or sandstorms. 

Port and Marine Equipment

Delivers protected power in salt-laden environments without contact damage. 

Outdoor Events and Stages

Powers sound and light systems, even with constant cable insertions. 

Long-Term Power Without Environmental Failures

Dust, heat, or rain often break connections in low-grade outdoor units. We build ours to work from -40°C to 60°C without cracking or loss of sealing. 

Frequent changes in tools or equipment don’t reduce life, due to its high mating cycle rating. Optional IP54 spill-resistant options or gold-plated pins allow more site-specific upgrades.

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

Can this socket withstand high-pressure cleaning or frequent water exposure?

Yes, the socket meets IP66 standards and resists powerful water jets from all angles. The gasketed lid and sealed backbox prevent moisture from reaching terminals. Frequent washdowns will not affect functionality.

How does the socket handle high inrush currents from power tools or machinery?

It supports 16A continuous load and manages 25A inrush for 10 milliseconds without tripping. This prevents false disconnects during tool start-up. Fault-protected models add 6kA breaking capacity for extra safety.

Will installation need a separate enclosure or housing?

No extra enclosure is required since the socket has a sealed backbox. It mounts directly to poles or walls with the included M6 stainless fixings. This reduces both installation time and hardware costs. 

How does the socket handle long-term outdoor exposure in industrial settings?

It uses UV-stabilized polycarbonate tested from -40°C to +60°C, maintaining full IP66 sealing. Stainless steel 316 hardware avoids rust or degradation. This ensures reliable output even in harsh, open environments.

Are different regional plug types or colors available?

Yes, the socket supports EU and UK plugs with interchangeable front plates. We also offer grey and black as standard, with custom color options on request. This helps align with region-specific standards and visual requirements.
