How to use

Install the socket according to local electrical regulations and wiring standards, ensuring power is switched off before starting work. Mount the complete housing on a suitable flat surface or flush-mount box that provides compatible fixings and cable entry. Make all conductor connections to the terminal points inside the enclosure following the manufacturer’s wiring diagram, tighten terminals to the specified torque, and verify protective earth connection. Close the hinged cover when the socket is not in use to maintain IP55 protection; the cover clips in and falls back for convenient access during operation.

Recommendations

Use this socket for fixed installations only; avoid exposure to direct high-pressure water jets and prolonged submersion. Periodically inspect the cover hinge, sealing surfaces and contact points for signs of wear or contamination and keep the cover closed when not in use to preserve ingress protection. Ensure installation and any maintenance are performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with applicable standards.
