GW66431 Gewiss Switched Socket IP44 3P+N+E 16A 400V 6H
MPN: GW66431
Why Choose the Gewiss GW66431 Interlocked Socket-Outlet?
The Gewiss GW66431 is a high-capacity 32A interlocked socket-outlet from the Combibloc IB range, specifically designed for three-phase power distribution. This unit is colour-coded Red to denote its 380V - 415V operating range and features a 3P+E (4-pin) configuration.
Built for heavy industrial environments, the GW66431 provides a safe interface for high-power machinery, welding equipment, and large motors. The mechanical interlock is a core safety feature: it prevents the rotary switch from being turned "ON" without a plug fully engaged and ensures the plug cannot be withdrawn while the circuit is live, eliminating the danger of arcing under heavy 32A loads.
Product Code: Gewiss GW66431
Key Benefits
- 32 Amp Capacity: Engineered for higher-current industrial loads compared to standard 16A outlets.
- Fail-Safe Interlock: Mechanical blocking system ensures the socket is de-energized during plug insertion and removal.
- Robust Technopolymer Housing: Halogen-free material with IK08 impact resistance and high UV stability for industrial longevity.
- Red Voltage Identification: Clear visual compliance with IEC 60309 standards for 400V three-phase systems.
- Safety Isolation: Integrated switch handle is padlockable in the OFF position for secure LOTO (Lock Out Tag Out) procedures.

Compatibility

Frequently Asked Questions
Can a 16A Red plug be used with this 32A socket?
No. To prevent overloading, 32A industrial sockets are physically larger than 16A versions. This unit will only accept a 32A 4-pin Red plug.
Does the GW66431 include a Neutral terminal?
No. This is a 3P+E (4-pin) configuration. If your equipment requires a neutral (5-pin), you will need the GW66432 model.
Is this socket protected against water?
Yes, it has an IP44 rating, meaning it is protected against solid objects over 1mm and water splashes from any direction, making it suitable for indoor industrial use or sheltered outdoor environments.
What size cable should I use for a 32A three-phase supply?
A 32A supply typically requires a cable cross-section of 6mm² (such as SWA or SY cable), though this should be verified by a qualified electrician based on the run length and installation method.
