Troubleshooting

No power to the socket

Verify that the main power supply to the enclosure is on. Check that the wires are securely connected to the screw terminals. Ensure the circuit breaker or fuse protecting the socket is not tripped or blown.

LED indicator not lighting up

Confirm that power is being supplied to the socket. Check the wiring connections to the LED input. If the LED is damaged, the unit may need replacement.

Plug does not fit securely

Ensure you are using a compatible Schuko or Italian plug type. Check for any debris obstructing the socket openings. If the socket internal contacts appear damaged, the unit may need replacement.

Overheating during use

Ensure the load connected does not exceed the 16A rating. Check for loose wire connections, which can cause increased resistance and heat. Ensure adequate ventilation within the enclosure.
