The Legrand 90168 CEE mounting socket is designed for professionals requiring a robust and reliable power connection in demanding environments. Its key benefit is providing safe, splash-proof, and impact-resistant power distribution for construction sites, workshops, and outdoor applications. A potential consideration is its fixed 3-pin configuration, which may not suit all multi-phase power needs.

IP44 signifies that the socket is protected against solid objects larger than 1.00 mm (like wires or small tools) and is also protected against water splashes from any direction.
IK09 indicates a high level of resistance to mechanical impacts. It can withstand an impact energy of up to 10 Joules, equivalent to a 5 kg mass dropped from a height of 200 mm.
No, this socket is rated for 230V and 16A. It is a 3-pin (2P + PE) socket for single-phase power. For 400V applications, you would need a different CEE socket with the appropriate voltage and pin configuration.
You need a CEE plug that matches the 3-pin (2P + PE), 230V, 16A specification. Ensure the plug is correctly inserted into the socket and locked if the plug design allows, for a secure connection.
The socket is made from Polyamide 6, a durable and robust plastic known for its resistance to impact and environmental factors.
While its IP44 rating provides protection against splashes and foreign bodies, for permanent outdoor installations exposed to direct weather, it is always advisable to consult specific installation guidelines and local regulations for optimal protection.
Verify that the circuit breaker is switched on and that the incoming power supply is active. Check the electrical connections to the socket for tightness and correct wiring by a qualified electrician.
Immediately de-energize the circuit. Inspect the socket for cracks or breaks in the casing or pins. If damaged, replace the unit.
De-energize the circuit and allow the socket to dry completely. Check the integrity of the seals and ensure the connected plug is fully seated and creating a seal. If the ingress was significant or repeated, consider replacement.
Setup: This CEE mounting socket is designed for panel or surface mounting. Ensure a secure electrical connection is made by a qualified electrician, following local wiring regulations. The socket requires a suitable CEE plug for connection.
Compatibility: Compatible with 230 V, 16 A power supplies and matching 3-pin CEE connectors (2P + PE).
Care: Regular cleaning with a dry or slightly damp cloth is recommended. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the socket is de-energized before cleaning or inspection. Check for any physical damage periodically.
