Design and protection rating
IP20 means protection against touching live parts with a finger, but not against water. The coupling is therefore meant for dry places such as a workshop, garage or vehicle interior. The polyamide insert holds the contacts firmly in place, and the rubber body does not crack if dropped on concrete.
- Rubber body, polyamide insert
- Protection rating IP20
- Cables up to 3G2.5 mm²
- From -40 °C to +120 °C
- 16 A, 230 V
Fitting
- Disconnect the cable from the power supply.
- Strip the sheath and insulation to the length given in the instructions and connect the green and yellow core to the earth terminal.

- Fitting should be done by a person with the right knowledge.

For the other end of the cable, use the Jäger Direkt Schuko rubber plug. For an indoor extension lead, the H05VV-F 3 x 1.5 mm² flexible cable is a good match.
