Base for double horizontal socket outlet with pin earthing and shutters, flush-mounting depth 21 mm, screw terminals.

• Maximum MCB rating: 16 A (1.5 mm²) / 20 A (2.5 mm²) (limited by national installation rules)
• Protection degree: The combination of a mechanism, a central plate and a faceplate has a protection degree of IP21D
• Impact resistance: The combination of a mechanism, a central plate and a faceplate has an impact-resistance of IK06
• Material base
  • ureumformaldehyde (UF) with high heat resistance
  • white RAL9010 (approximately)
• Flush-mounting frame
  • 1 mm-thick metal
  • galvanized on all sides after cutting, even on the cut edges
  • with 4 grooves with screw hole of 7 mm
  • with 4 screw holes (indicated by a screw symbol) with a diameter of 3 mm for mounting on panels
• Required type of flush-mounting box
  • depth: min. 40 mm (cabling space included)
  • claw/screw fixing: 60 mm
  • inner diameter box: 60 mm
  • multiple boxes centre distance horizontal: 71 mm
  • multiple boxes centre distance vertical: 71 mm
  • multiple boxes centre distance vertical: 60 mm for Belgium and France
• Fixing method
  • easily mounted in a flush-mounting box or in a trunking system with mounting brackets, thanks to:
  • grooves, each with two screw holes of 7 mm on the horizontal axis
  • grooves with one screw hole of 7 mm on the vertical axis
  • mounting with horizontal screws: Position the flush-mounting frame over the screw head of the flush-mounting boxes or mounting brackets, move to the desired position and screw tight.
  • mounting with vertical screws: Position the flush-mounting frame over the screw head of the screws of the flush-mounting boxes and move it to the left.
• Centre-to-centre distance
  • Simple and quick assembly of one or more mechanisms by the indication (chalk line, laser, etc.) of the centre of the flush-mounting frame
  • vertical coupling centre-to-centre distance 60 mm by sliding several bases into each other, they lock themselves automatically
  • vertical coupling centre-to-centre distance 71 mm using pre-formed lips at the bottom, by folding the lips downwards over a length of 1 mm, the bases support each other and the centre-to-centre distance is guaranteed.
  • horizontal connection of multiple bases is quick and perfect thanks to the folded-up dovetails on the left and right sides
  • extra robustness due to the folded-up edges on the outside of the base and the continuation into the inside of the base
• End border: 4 rectangular openings (7 x 2.5 mm) which, if the flush-mounting box protrudes from the plasterwork, can compensate for a margin of between 1 and 1.2 mm, so that the faceplate can still butt up perfectly against the wall
• Wire connection
  • the sockets are fitted with cage clamps with permanent screws with combination screwheads (Pz2 or slot 1 x 5,5 mm)
  • every screw is provided with a screwdriver slot that prevents the screwdriver from sliding off the screwhead.
• Wire capacity
  • all connection terminals at the top side of the base
  • up to 4 x 2.5 mm² wire per terminal
• Earthing wire capacity
  • 2 x 2.5 mm² + 2 x 4 mm² wire in the earthing terminal
• Stripping length
  • 14 mm stripping length
  • indelibly indicated at the rear side: stripping length
• Ambient temperature: -5 – +40 °C
• Dimensions (HxWxD): 71 x 73 mm
• Marking: CE
