SQE16435 Ilme Switched socket 16 amp 110v 3p IP55 without backbox

Why Choose the ILME SQE1643.5 Interlocked Switched Socket?

The ILME SQE1643.5 is a robust 16 A 110 V industrial interlocked switched socket designed for safe and reliable power distribution in industrial, commercial and site applications. As part of the ILME SQE industrial socket-outlet series, it combines a CEE-style socket outlet with a mechanically interlocked isolating switch to help prevent unsafe connection and disconnection under load.

This switched socket features a mechanical interlock that prevents the switch from being turned to the ON position unless a compatible plug is inserted, while also preventing the plug from being withdrawn while the switch is ON. A lockable operating knob provides additional isolation security, making the SQE1643.5 suitable for machinery, workshop equipment, temporary power systems and industrial installations where dependable electrical interlocking is required.

With a rated current of 16 A, an operating voltage range of 100–130 V AC at 50 / 60 Hz and a 2P+E three-pole configuration, the SQE1643.5 is suited to standard 110 V industrial power applications. Its IP55 protection rating, self-extinguishing thermoplastic construction and yellow voltage-coded socket lid provide a durable solution for demanding environments. This version is supplied without a backbox for integration with compatible ILME enclosures and distribution systems.

Safe Industrial Power Connection and Isolation

Interlocked switched sockets such as the ILME SQE1643.5 combine an industrial socket outlet and isolating switch in a mechanically linked assembly. The interlock prevents the switch from being turned on without a plug correctly inserted and prevents the connected plug from being removed while power is switched on, helping reduce the risk of electrical arcing and accidental disconnection under load.

The SQE series is designed for industrial power distribution systems where durability, safe isolation and dependable connections are essential. Its IP55 construction, lockable switch and compatibility with ILME modular enclosure systems make the SQE1643.5 particularly suitable for factories, workshops, construction environments, production equipment and electrical distribution assemblies.

Typical Applications

• 110 V industrial power distribution systems.
• Construction sites and temporary electrical installations.
• Industrial workshops and maintenance facilities.
• Machinery and production equipment power supplies.
• Factory and manufacturing electrical systems.
• Portable tools and low-voltage industrial equipment.
• Electrical distribution boards and socket combinations.
• OEM machinery and industrial control installations.
