• Construction sites: In sheltered or covered sites that could be exposed to mild weather conditions and light splashing.
• Agriculture: Used on mobile equipment or appliances used or stored in sheds and barns
• Manufacturing environments: with special power requirements for heavy machinery
• Sports and entertainment: Used in on lighting and power equipment in sheltered studios and warehouses.
• Light industry: Maintenance workshops, garages and shop floors

Environmental Protection

RS Pro IP44 splashproof industrial cable mount plugs are designed in accordance with BS EN 60529. The IP rating assures the connector is splash-proof from any direction. As such this power cable assembly is suitable for areas where a chance of contact with water is likely, but not suitable where submergence might be a risk.

Colour Coding

CEE industrial connectors have an industry-standard colour coding in compliance with BS EN 60309-2 / BS4343 and IEC 309 Colour coding refers to the connector's rated voltage.

• Violet, 20 V to 25 V
• White, 40 V to 50 V
• Yellow, 100 V to 130 V
• Blue, 200 V to 250 V
• Red. 380 V to 480 V
• Black, 500 V to 1000 V
