BG launches waterproof single socket for EV use
BG has launched an IP66-rated single socket housed in a high impact weatherproof casing, designed for domestic installation for Mode 2 EV charging certified to BS1363/EV.
T
he new product, from leading supplier of wiring and accessories BG, is ideal for households where an EV charger set up is not a suitable or viable option. The socket is also suitable for other domestic outdoor power needs. This go-to alternative for domestic EV charging is unmatched in its class for durability, ease of installation and safety, certified to BS1363/EV. The IP66 rating guarantees protection against water and dust ingress in the most arduous of conditions, making the product perfect for external use. The socket has been rigorously tested to endure the prolonged high-load conditions typical of Mode 2 charging, making
it ideal for UK 3-Pin to Mode 2 EV Charging. Additionally, the socket meets high product quality standards, achieving the prestigious ASTA approval mark—a recognised symbol of quality and reliability.
From the end user perspective, this weatherproof single socket features a large open/close paddle for ease of access or to lock the cover in place, with a patented cable entry to prevent accidental opening. It is perfect for use in gardens, patios, sheds, outhouses and garages. There is also 150° rotation for added convenience.
The weatherproof casing has integrated fast fix screws and multiple drill out entry points
(one at the rear and one on each side) for ease of installation. There are multiple knockouts accommodating 5 x 20mm fittings. No separate screws or screw covers are needed, and the installer can choose the most convenient entry point without the need for drilling or modifying the socket, even in tight, awkward spaces. BG is part of the Luceco Group, which also includes the Sync Energy and Masterplug brands as well as commercial and domestic lighting. Luceco has over eighty years of industry experience and is internationally recognised as one of the market leaders across all key electrical products.
