Panel mounted power outlet socket
SIEMENS Low-Voltage Power Distribution

The socket outlets for mounting in distribution boards acc. to DIN 43880 and on standard mounting rails acc. to DIN 60715 have since become standard in modern switchgear assemblies/distribution boards. They are used for tasks such as the connection of plugin communication devices in communication distribution boards, in switchgear assemblies for maintenance purposes or in private plants for the occasional use of devices with heavy starting and separate fusing. The socket outlet range complies with a number of different standards and is available according to the standards of the following countries: VDE for Germany, CEE7 for Belgium/France, CEI for Italy and UL for USA.

In distribution boards with 55 mm mounting depth the socket outlet can only be used without the hinged lid. The lids can be retrofitted on all devices. To make installation easier, the touch-protected terminals L, N and PE are located on the side of the socket outlet.

In plant sections where equipment is still current-carrying, even after the main switch has been disconnected, this must be indicated acc. to DIN VDE 0105-1 and IEC/EN 60204-1/ DIN VDE 0113-1. Yellow socket outlets are used for these applications.
