Weidmüller Sockets

weidmuller sockets overview and range structure

This category groups panel and wall socket solutions for control rooms, machine skids and utility bays. The Weidmüller range splits into cabinet inlets, panel-mount receptacles, wall boxes, and CEE service outlets with matching lids and frames. Buyers are panel shops, OEMs and MRO teams who want predictable footprints, IP ratings that match the room, and accessories that arrive in the same carton. Most distributors keep the core sizes—Schuko/FR and CEE 16 A blue—in stock, with hinged covers and gaskets as fast-movers.

weidmuller modular socket systems for flexible layouts

Modules share a common cutout and clip geometry so you can swap a service receptacle for a data or indicator insert without reworking the plate. Frames run 1–4 gang; surface boxes come in low and deep profiles for stiff conductors. DIN-rail carriers let maintenance panels use the same inserts as wall stations, reducing SKU count. Popular variants: single-gang utility, panel inlet with switch-ready space, and gasketed lid kits for splash zones.

weidmuller industrial socket outlets choices and ratings

For plant floors and washdown areas, go with gasketed housings and hinged lids in IP44 or IP65. CEE 16 A blue covers most service loads; lockable versions protect against unauthorised use. Impact-resistant bodies and captive screws suit glove work. Where panels feed portable tools, specify panel inlets with matching strain-relief bushings to keep cord grip reliable. Packaging is typically singles for mechanisms and bags of five for covers and gaskets—easy to stage at the line.

weidmuller power sockets specifications that matter

• Ratings. 10/16 A utility and CEE 16 A service; thermal limits sized for continuous tools and test gear.
• Ingress. IP20 for clean enclosures; IP44 for damp rooms; IP65 with lid and gasket for washdown.
• Wiring. Push-in or screw clamps; twin terminals enable feed-through on multi-gang frames.
• Bodies and finishes. Industrial grey/black for plant, white for labs; impact sleeves available for harsh zones.
• Accessories. Hinged covers, label windows, sealing gaskets, strain-relief bushings, surface boxes, frame adapters.
• Kitting. Common practice is one receptacle, one lid, one gasket and a frame—order as a set to avoid site delays.

Applications and compatibility

Use at test benches, MCC corridors, packaging lines and maintenance panels. Sockets land on enclosure doors or side plates; panel inlets sit near cable glands so bonding stays short. For basket building, add TS35 rails, PE/earth terminals, wire duct, markers and DIN-rail PSU modules. When specifying mixed utilities, pair service outlets with RJ45 pass-throughs and a small breaker row so technicians can isolate tool power locally.

Integration with other Weidmüller products

Door-plate cutouts align with the brand’s Ø22 ecosystem, so legends and emergency labels match selector switches and pilots. PE links tie to the same earth bars used with terminal blocks. If you route cords through gland plates, choose EMC cable glands so shield continuity runs from entry to the PE terminal next to the socket row. Markers use the familiar carrier profiles, keeping device IDs consistent from door to schematic.

Selection criteria for B2B clients

• Environment and IP. Match room class; fit gasketed lids in wet or dusty bays to avoid ingress failures.
• Mounting depth. Deep surface boxes handle rigid conductors and daisy-chain feeds; flush frames suit desks and clean rooms.
• Feed-through strategy. Twin-terminal inserts speed multi-gang installs and reduce WAGO/terminal add-ons.
• Access control. Lockable lids or key switches where operators shouldn’t energise tools without permit.
• Serviceability. Standardise on one frame family; spares become universal and swaps take minutes.
• Kit completeness. Order lids, gaskets, frames and strain reliefs with each mechanism to prevent mid-build holds.
