IP67 Waterproof 230V Ceeform Plugs and Sockets

This is our PCE IP67 CEE 32A 230V (2P+E) plug & socket range in one listing, with variations covering the 0132-6 / 0232-6 plugs and 2132-6 / 2232-6 sockets. If you need a genuinely tough industrial connector for outdoor power, wash-down areas, marinas, site use, damp plant rooms or anywhere water ingress causes nuisance faults, this range is built for real work.

Choose your PCE part number (variation guide)

All part numbers listed here are IP67-rated industrial connectors for 32A / 230V / 2P+E. The main difference is whether you need a plug (male) or a socket/coupler (female), plus the specific PCE body style associated with each part number.

Quick pairing tip: Most people building a lead will choose one plug (0132-6 or 0232-6) and one socket/coupler (2132-6 or 2232-6) to create a sealed, industrial connection that’s far more dependable outdoors than improvised junctions.

What IP67 actually means (in plain English)

IP is the ingress protection rating. The first digit relates to dust protection and the second digit relates to water protection. IP67 means:

• 6 = dust-tight (helps prevent grit and debris affecting contacts and seals)
• 7 = protected against temporary immersion (a big step up from “splash only” ratings)

Practical examples where IP67 is worth it:

• Outdoor hook-ups where connectors can sit on wet ground or be exposed to driving rain
• Wash-down areas (food units, farms, workshops, industrial cleaning zones)
• Marina / coastal environments where damp and salt spray are constant
• Construction sites with mud, dust and water as a daily reality

If you only ever connect indoors, a lower rating can be fine. If you want maximum reliability outdoors and fewer call-backs, IP67 is the connector choice that helps prevent corrosion, nuisance tripping and damp-related faults. For more sealed options, see our IP67 Rated category.

How the CEE connection works and why it’s the right tool for outdoor power

CEE industrial connectors (IEC 60309 pattern) are built for repeatable, safe, high-current connections. Pins are keyed to prevent incorrect mating, and the housing supports a firm engagement designed for industrial environments. When correctly assembled and fully mated, the sealing system helps keep water and contamination out of the connection interface.

• Keyed design helps prevent incorrect connection
• Sealing system helps protect the interface in wet conditions
• Strain relief helps protect terminations from pulls and twists
• Industrial construction designed for knocks, vibration and frequent use

How we build authority on IP67 (what most sellers don’t tell you)

• IP67 depends on assembly: the seal and gland must be seated and tightened correctly, and the connection must be fully engaged.
• Keep seals clean: grit and damage to sealing faces is the fastest way to lose ingress protection in the real world.
• Use the right cable outdoors: a good connector paired with the wrong cable still fails in winter. Choose a cable suited to your environment. Nexans TitanEx is ultra high end power cable made in France
• Don’t leave connections lying in standing water: IP67 improves resilience, it doesn’t turn a connector into a submarine hatch.

If you’re aiming for reliable outdoor power, the connector is the foundation. The rest is choosing the right enclosure, cable and protection. (If you need sealed distribution components, start in our IP67 Rated category.)

FAQ: PCE IP67 32A 230V CEE plugs & sockets (0132-6 / 2132-6 / 0232-6 / 2232-6)

Is a PCE IP67 32A 230V CEE plug and socket safe to use outside in heavy rain and spray?

Yes, IP67 is designed for harsh wet environments, but performance depends on correct assembly and a fully mated connection. Keep seals clean, tighten the gland correctly, and avoid leaving connectors half-engaged.

What is the difference between PCE 0132-6 and PCE 0232-6 for an IP67 32A 230V CEE plug?

Both are male IP67 32A 230V 2P+E CEE plugs. The difference is the specific PCE body style associated with each part number, while the electrical rating and application intent remain the same within this product range.

What is the difference between PCE 2132-6 and PCE 2232-6 for an IP67 32A 230V CEE socket?

Both are female IP67 32A 230V 2P+E CEE socket/couplers. The difference is the specific PCE body style associated with each part number, while the electrical rating and use case remain the same within this product range.

Does IP67 on a PCE CEE plug or socket mean it can be left permanently submerged in water?

No. IP67 covers temporary immersion under defined conditions, not permanent submersion. For ongoing submersion, different connector types and sealing approaches are required.

Do PCE IP67 32A CEE connectors help prevent corrosion and damp-related power faults outdoors?

They can significantly reduce water ingress compared with lower IP ratings, which helps reduce corrosion risk and moisture-related issues over time—especially when connections are kept clean, properly assembled and fully mated.
