Description
HDIUK Phase-1 400v 3-Phase CEE Plug to 240v L1 Fly Lead Converter
Easily convert 400v 3-phase power to standard 240v UK mains using this professional-grade converter lead.

Ideal for events, workshops, or on-site power setups where only 3-phase supply is available. If you need 13A sockets on a DG, 3-phase generator is a good example.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between 16A and 32A CEE plug sizes?
The main differences are current capacity and physical size. A 16A CEE plug is rated for up to 16 amps and is physically smaller, with thinner pins and lighter cable. A 32A CEE plug supports higher loads up to 32 amps, and is larger and heavier to accommodate thicker wiring and more robust contacts. Always match plug size to your power needs and socket type.
Can I use this lead on any 400v 3-phase socket?
This converter is designed for use with standard (RED) 5-pin (3P+N+E) 400v CEE sockets. It uses only L1, Neutral, and Earth—so confirm that the socket provides a neutral line. If in doubt, consult a site electrician before use.
Is it safe to run 13A UK appliances from a 3-phase plug?
Yes—when using a professionally wired converter like this. The lead provides single-phase 230/250v using just one line (L1), Neutral, and Earth from the 3-phase socket. Each appliance must use a UK plug with its own internal 13A fuse.
