- Description
The Schneider Electric PKY16M423 is a PratiKa industrial wander socket rated 16 A, 2P+E at 200-250 V AC, protected to IP44 for connecting portable equipment through a trailing cable. The blue-marked housing and fast connection terminals match the 16 A wander plug in the same clock-position-6h family, and the body accepts a 1-2.5 mm² cable with an IK08 impact rating.

Selection Notes
Pair this PKY16M423 wander socket with the matching 16 A, 2P+E PratiKa wander plug to extend a supply cable without opening a panel. Pick IP44 for dry indoor runs and the IP67 variant for outdoor or washdown routing; the 16 A rating distinguishes it from the 32 A socket in the same family. The blue housing flags the 200-250 V rating so installers do not cross-connect it with a different-voltage line. The 2P+E configuration carries a single-phase line and earth only, so it suits 200-250 V portable tools and lighting rather than three-phase motor loads. Fast connection accepts a 1-2.5 mm² conductor on the trailing cable side of the joint.
