SQE1675 Ilme Switched socket 16 amp 500v 5 pole IP44 (without backbox)
ILME SQE1675 is a 16 A 500 V AC 3P+N+E five-pole IP44 interlocked industrial switched socket designed for safe three-phase power distribution and supplied without a backbox.
Why Choose the ILME SQE1675 Interlocked Switched Socket?
The ILME SQE1675 is a robust 16 A 500 V industrial interlocked switched socket designed for safe and reliable three-phase power distribution in machinery, manufacturing and industrial installations. Part of the ILME SQE interlocked switched socket series, it combines an industrial socket outlet with a mechanically interlocked switch to provide controlled connection and isolation of electrical equipment.
The mechanical interlocking system controls the relationship between the plug, socket and switch, helping prevent the socket from being energised without a compatible plug correctly inserted and preventing plug removal while the switch is in the ON position. This arrangement provides an additional level of operational safety where high-voltage industrial equipment is regularly connected, disconnected or isolated.
With a rated current of 16 A, a nominal voltage of 500 V AC and a 3P+N+E five-pole configuration, the SQE1675 is suitable for three-phase industrial equipment requiring both neutral and protective earth connections. Its IP44 protection rating provides protection suitable for demanding industrial installations, while this version is supplied without a backbox for integration into compatible panels and enclosure systems.
Key Advantages
- Industrial interlocked switched socket for three-phase power distribution.
- 16 A current rating suitable for machinery and industrial equipment.
- 500 V AC nominal voltage for higher-voltage industrial power systems.

Safe High-Voltage Three-Phase Power Connection and Isolation
Interlocked switched sockets such as the ILME SQE1675 combine an industrial socket outlet and local switching within a mechanically linked assembly. The interlocking mechanism helps prevent the connected plug from being withdrawn while the outlet is energised, reducing the risks associated with accidental disconnection under load and providing controlled local isolation for industrial equipment.
The five-pole 3P+N+E configuration provides three phase conductors, neutral and protective earth, making the SQE1675 suitable for industrial machinery and electrical equipment requiring all three phases plus a neutral supply. Its backbox-free configuration enables integration into suitable electrical panels, distribution assemblies and compatible industrial enclosures.
Typical Applications
- 500 V three-phase industrial power distribution.
- Industrial machinery requiring a neutral connection.
- Factory and manufacturing electrical systems.
- Processing and production machinery.
- Industrial workshops and maintenance facilities.
- Motors and higher-voltage industrial equipment.
- Electrical distribution panels and enclosure systems.
- OEM machinery and fixed industrial installations.
