Socket outlet Type F REV 20190502 Black

The REV 20190502 Socket outlet Type F in black is a surface-mounted electrical receptacle designed for mains use at 230 V and 16 A. Constructed from durable plastic and rated IP44, this Type F outlet protects against solid objects and water splashes, making it suitable for use in many indoor and sheltered outdoor locations. The compact footprint (60 mm width, 97 mm depth with a minimum installation depth of 85 mm) allows installation where space is limited. This model is supplied as a single unit and is compatible with standard Type F plugs.

Advantages

The socket combines an IP44 protection level with a durable plastic housing to offer basic environmental resistance without requiring specialized enclosures. Its 230 V / 16 A electrical rating matches common residential and commercial circuits. The compact dimensions reduce the need for deep mounting boxes, and the black colour provides a neutral, low-visibility finish that integrates into a variety of interiors. Lightweight construction (approximately 0.088 kg) simplifies handling and installation.

Suitable for

• Residential sockets in kitchens, bathrooms and utility rooms where IP44 protection is needed
• Commercial premises such as offices, workshops and retail where standard Type F outlets are required
