KONTAK-SIMON Simon 10 Matt Black 1-Gang Schuko Socket with Shutters and Flap IP44 Spring Clamps 16A

Exposed to splashes, dust, or curious fingers, standard sockets quickly become a liability. The KONTAK-SIMON Simon 10 socket in matt black tackles all three: a spring-loaded protective flap seals the Schuko outlet when idle, integrated child shutters block foreign objects, and an IP44 rating shrugs off moisture in bathrooms, kitchens, and sheltered outdoor areas.

Who is it for

Electricians and homeowners upgrading damp or dust-prone zones—laundries, covered terraces, workshops, utility rooms. The flush-mounted design suits standard 60 mm wall boxes, while the 10-module format integrates neatly with Simon 10 frames and plates.
