Eaton fuses protect the outlet

The adapter has high-quality PCE components and Eaton fuses. Therefore, the 16A outlet has reliable protection when you convert from a 32A supply.

Durable body and a wide temperature range

The body of the Power adapter 32A–16A is impact-resistant ABS plastic. In addition, the operating temperature range is wide: –25 °C to +40 °C.

IP44 protects against splashing water and dust. The body also has a practical hanging hole, but never leave the product hanging by the cord alone.

Power adapter 32A–16A – who is it for?

The adapter suits situations where a 32A supply is available, but the device or machine has a 16A plug. For example, this applies to hand tools and smaller machines.

If you need the opposite conversion, choose the Power adapter 16A–32A instead.

Power adapter 32A–16A in practice on site

The adapter solves a common site problem: the supply point and the device plug differ in size. With the adapter, you can use the device without changing the cable or the supply.

However, the load after the adapter must not exceed the rated current of the smaller connector. Also support the connection, so that the connectors take no pulling force.

How to choose the right model

First, the choice starts from the size of the supply point. Take the size that matches the most common supply point on your site, so you need the fewest adapters.

Also think about how many adapters the site needs at once. After all, one unit next to the board is not enough when work points are on several floors.

Finally, you can see the full range in the electrical accessories product group.

Compatibility with other equipment

The accessory is part of a set, so choose it together with the other site equipment. When the connectors match the boards and extension cables, you need no extra adapters.

Generally, the supply comes from a site sub-distribution board. See also the plug-on sub-distribution boards and the matching extension cables. For larger connectors, see the power socket adaptor 63A to 32A.

Power adapter 32A–16A – safety

Always connect the adapter to a socket with 30 mA RCD protection. The product is made in the EU, and it is designed and tested for professional use.

Before every use, check the enclosure for cracks, the connectors for burn marks and the cable for crush damage. Replace a damaged unit completely, because the IP rating no longer applies if the casing is broken.

Finally, only a qualified electrician may do fixed installations and repairs. You can read more about the requirements on the Tukes website.
