IP67 Waterproof 400V 3-Phase Ceeform Plugs and Sockets

This listing covers the PCE IP67 three-phase CEE plug and socket range, available as 16 Amp and 32 Amp variations with options for plug (male) and socket/coupler (female). These connectors are built for demanding industrial and outdoor environments where water ingress, dust and long-term reliability matter.

PCE three-phase IP67 connector options (variation guide)

All connectors listed here are three-phase (3P+N+E) industrial CEE connectors. Select the required current rating and whether you need a plug or a socket.

Pairing guidance: To build a complete three-phase lead, select one plug and one socket with the same current rating. Never mix 16A and 32A connectors on the same lead.

What IP67 means and why it matters for three-phase power

IP67 is an ingress protection rating. The first digit relates to dust protection and the second digit relates to water protection. IP67 connectors are commonly chosen for three-phase applications because the environment is often wet, dirty, or exposed.

• 6 – Dust-tight (helps keep grit out of the contacts and seals)
• 7 – Protected against temporary immersion in water (a step beyond splash-only protection)

Real-world reasons to choose PCE IP67 three-phase connectors include outdoor hook-ups, construction sites, wash-down areas, marinas/coastal locations and industrial environments where moisture causes nuisance faults.

Three-phase CEE connectors explained (3P+N+E)

These PCE connectors follow the standard CEE / IEC 60309 layout: three phases (L1/L2/L3), neutral (N) and earth (E). The keyed design supports correct mating, and the sealing system helps protect the interface when fully engaged.

• Keyed design reduces incorrect connection risk
• Secure engagement designed for industrial use
• Sealing system supports outdoor reliability when fully mated
• Strain relief helps protect terminations and cable movement

FAQ: PCE IP67 three-phase CEE plugs and sockets (16A & 32A)

What does IP67 mean on a PCE three-phase CEE plug or socket used outdoors?

IP67 indicates a high level of protection against dust and water ingress. “6” means dust-tight and “7” means protected against temporary immersion. IP67 performance depends on correct assembly and a fully mated connection.

What is the difference between PCE 0252-6 and PCE 2252-6 in the 32A three-phase IP67 range?

PCE 0252-6 is the 32A three-phase plug (male). PCE 2252-6 is the 32A three-phase socket/coupler (female). They are typically paired to build a 32A three-phase lead or extension.

What is the difference between PCE 0152-6 and PCE 2152-6 in the 16A three-phase IP67 range?

PCE 0152-6 is the 16A three-phase plug (male). PCE 2152-6 is the 16A three-phase socket/coupler (female). They are typically paired to build a 16A three-phase lead or extension.

Can a PCE IP67 16A three-phase connector be mixed with a PCE IP67 32A three-phase connector?

No. 16A and 32A connectors should not be mixed on the same lead or system. Always match the current rating throughout the assembly and ensure cables and protection devices are correctly rated.

Does IP67 on a PCE three-phase connector mean it can be left permanently submerged in water?

No. IP67 covers temporary immersion under defined conditions, not permanent submersion. For ongoing submersion you would need a different connector type and sealing approach.

Why do electricians choose PCE IP67 three-phase CEE plugs and sockets for site power and wash-down areas?

IP67 connectors help reduce water and dust ingress compared with lower IP ratings, improving reliability in harsh environments. When correctly assembled and fully mated, they can reduce corrosion risk and nuisance faults caused by damp conditions.
