What the 110 Volts 32 Amps CEE Plug to NEMA 5-15 (USA) Socket Converter does
Many UK job sites and generators supply power via 32 A CEE (yellow) connectors. This converter adapts that industrial feed to a standard NEMA 5-15 socket so you can run US-market equipment safely at 110 V. The tough Arctic-grade cable remains flexible in cold weather and withstands demanding site conditions.
If you need a smaller setup, check the HDIUK 110V 16A CEE Plug to NEMA 5-15 Converter for lighter loads or compact transformers.

Recommended accessories
For longer cable runs, pair your 110V 32A CEE Plug to NEMA 5-15 Converter with our heavy-duty 110 V 32 A CEE Extension Lead, built from the same 4 mm² Arctic cable. If you also need extra reach on the US socket side, use the HDIUK North American NEMA Extension Lead for safe grounded extension between converter and device.
Typical applications
The 110V 32A CEE Plug to NEMA 5-15 Converter is perfect for construction sites, film sets and workshops where US-spec equipment needs a reliable 110 V feed. Power imported chargers, lighting, soldering stations or AV gear within the 15 A socket limit.
