Who is PCE and what does it make?

PCE (PC Electric) is an Austrian manufacturer of industrial plugs and sockets, headquartered in St. Martin im Innkreis, in Upper Austria. Its core activity covers industrial plugs and sockets, distribution boxes, mobile electrical panels for building sites, test equipment and switches, including product development and tool making. We quote CEE plugs and sockets to EN 60309-2, safety plugs with protective contact and distribution boxes.

From the CEE series, POWER TWIST is a 63 A, 5-pole (3P+N+PE) plug, hour position 6h, for 200/346 V up to 240/415 V, 50 and 60 Hz, with a PA6 housing, nickel-plated brass contacts with pilot pin, frame-and-screw terminals and IP66/IP67 degree of protection. COMBO-POL2 is a wall socket combination of 16 or 32 A, with 3, 4 or 5 poles, IP44, with two safety sockets, with or without an ON/OFF switch of AC22A and 10 kA to EN 60947-3. Taurus2 is a 16 A, 250 V a.c. rubber safety plug, with a double earthing system and IP54.

Applications are the power supply of machinery, workshops, work platforms and building sites, where three-phase equipment is connected with CEE plugs and sockets. In a quotation, what matters is the rated current, the number of poles, the voltage, the frequency, the hour position (which prevents wrong mating), the degree of protection and the housing material.

How do we supply PCE in Romania?

From the PCE programme we can quote CEE plugs, sockets and combinations, Taurus2 safety plugs and distribution boxes, by article code. For a correct quotation send the article code (for example 035-6), the rated current, the number of poles, the voltage and frequency, the hour position, the degree of protection and, for boxes, the number and type of sockets. The products come to order, through EU supply channels or other supply routes; for current models, 24–72 h when the item is available locally or at the supplier. Otherwise, usually 1–4 weeks. For boxes with a special configuration, depending on brand and specifications, the lead time may be longer. We set the exact lead time in the quotation.

A distribution box with a special configuration of sockets and protections is set from the electrical diagram and the list of loads.
