Used across the world but with a multitude of names, IEC 60309 plugs and sockets are the workhorse waterproof electrical connectors for industrial electrical installations. We see inside the factory to find out the secrets of the new Lewden Palazolli XCEE range. See how they are made and why not all plugs and sockets are created equal.
Officially they are IEC 60309-2 1999 "plugs, socket-outlets and couplers for industrial purposes" - but in real life, you may know them by the manufacturer trade name - Commando sockets are the most common term in the UK from the range manufactured by MK. Mennekes plug, Marechal and Ceeform are also common manufacturer terms. Some people call them by the current rating e.g 16A plug, 32A plug - but they do go up to a massive 800 amps.
Or you may relate them to the application - caravan plug (blue 230V 16a) building site plug (yellow 110V)
We take a factory tour around the Palazolli factory and see the production process from raw metal and plastic to complete product.
