Wall mounted socket DUO by MENNEKES - DUO SWITCHED & INTERLOCKED
Machines and systems work day and night, conveyor belts are moving and cranes handle heavy materials: container harbours and shipyards, mining plants, food industries and factories are constantly busy. A reliable electrical current plays an essential part in smooth and cost-effective operations. This is where our completely revised, switched and interlocked DUO wall mounted sockets come in. Available in 16 A and 32 A versions. At this year’s Light+Building the DUO will be shown with new, practical features.
Convenient and time-saving installation
The enclosure base can be rotated through 180 degrees – allowing flexible use the of M32 cable gland to bring the supply cable in from the top or bottom as required. The base also has four sealed cable entries with different pre-installed threads (three M25 and one M32). You simply push out the grommet of the desired entry for easy termination. This way the wall socket stays airtight and secure. You can also purchase sturdy glands for M32 and M25 cables as accessories from us.
The mounting plate is removable for an easy installation. Socket and switch disconnector are on the mounting plate and come prewired. All components can be quickly fitted to the wall. You can also easily remove the mounting plate with the socket and switch as a single unit at any time, for example to place them on a firm surface for maintenance work.
Our switched and interlocked DUO wall mounted sockets have four captive combination head screws with quick-screw double thread and interior drive ratchet. This lets you quickly and easily open and close the enclosure using an Allen key or flat-tip screwdriver. The combination head screws are made of plastic and therefore considerably more durable than metal screws.
Safe and easy operation
Whether you‘re an electrician who installs and services sockets, or a user, the safe and easy installation and operation of sockets is essential. Our DUO wall mounted sockets deliver safety and convenience in two ways:
DUO lock 1: Our DUO wall mounted sockets integrate a switch disconnector with an easy-to-grip rotary switch. If there’s no plug connected, it’s always in the “OFF” position. It’s only possible to connect or disconnect a plug when the switch is in its “OFF” position – for your own safety.
DUO lock 2: When a plug is in the socket, you can turn the switch to „ON“. This mechanically locks the socket to prevent the plug from being pulled out when it‘s carrying a live current. The result is safe, reliable power flow for your equipment and machines.
If you want an additional level of safety, you can attach a lockout/tagout padlock to the DUO wall socket. This prevents accidental switching to “ON” position – even when a plug is connected – protecting you while performing service or maintenance work.
Effortlessly connect and disconnect with X-CONTACT®
The DUO wall mounted socket features our X-CONTACT® contact sleeve technology. The sleeves, which are made of a resilient flexible material, are slotted in an X pattern. When a plug is inserted, its pin expands the opening in the contact sleeve. The plug and receptacle are thus securely joined. It‘s also especially easy to connect and disconnect a plug – as much as 50% less force is required.
Our DUO wall mounted sockets are equipped with a pimpled rubberised hinged cap and deliver IP67 ingress protection. It‘s extremely easy to grab and hold, even in moist or wet conditions, for easy opening and closing. The socket‘s hinged cap is easy to open and close for comfortable use and reliable operation without mishaps. It opens upward instead of toward the wall. This prevents collisions with connected cables and cable glands.
Robust and durable
The enclosure of our DUO wall mounted sockets are made of high-quality plastic. They are available in your choice of material: engineering thermoplastic or plastic that is resistant to chemical attack. The plastics used are break- and impact-resistant, highly electrically insulating, and impervious to heat and cold. The special plastic also provides protection from aggressive substances such as chemicals, oils, fats, alkaline, and saltwater.
Depending on the version, our DUO wall mounted sockets have IP44 or IP67 ingress protection and foamed seals. This reliably protects them from water spray, dust, and penetration by small foreign bodies and water. This way you get a product that is extremely robust and weatherproof and will perform reliably for many years.
The bases of our wall mounted sockets have standard dimensions that match those of the older DUO models. You can easily replace your existing DUO wall mounted sockets with new models.

PowerTOP® Xtra from MENNEKES - A family for every application
In industry, on the construction site, at events, in shipbuilding or in railway stations and server centres - electricity must be distributed in a safe and flexible manner in all places and under the harshest conditions. We have packaged our accumulated CEE know-how for you in the PowerTOP® Xtra family. The robust, durable plugs and sockets "made in Germany" are available from 16 to 125 A. Many of these devices have been tried and tested for years and are in reliable use all over the world. You can see our reliable product solutions with new features at this year’s Light+Building.
Ergonomics rethought - safe handling and long service life
A special design and robust materials ensure that you can use our PowerTOP® Xtra plugs and sockets safely and conveniently under the most demanding conditions and give the products an extra long service life. Thanks to the ergonomic shape of the housing, the knobbed grip zones and the knobbed, rubber-coated cable gland, the plugs and sockets are easy to grip, perfectly slip-resistant in the hand - even in damp and wet conditions - and can be plugged and unplugged thousands of times. With the 63 and 125 A plugs and sockets, the cable gland docks directly onto the cover - which makes it particularly easy to keep the surfaces of the plug and connector clean.
Our plugs and sockets have a built-in opening aid on theconnector, which you can use to conveniently open and hold the hinged lid. In addition, the plugs and sockets have a twist lock between the front part and the cover - this means that you can lock them securely and quickly without screws. In the 63 and 125 A plugs and connectors (protection class IP 67), the seals in the connector lid and in the front part of the plug are also moulded on - and therefore permanently captive.
Ergonomics rethought - powerful extras for additional protection
Protection against dust and water: Our 16 and 32 A plugs and sockets comply with protection class IP 54, while the 63 and 125 A products conform to protection classes IP 44 or IP 67. Protection against aggressive substances and high humidity: Our 63 and 125 A plugs and sockets are equipped with highly heat-resistant contact carriers and optionally with nickel-plated contacts. The contact pins on the plugs are also nickel-plated. The 5-pin plugs and sockets on the 16 and 32 A devices are optionally available as a PowerTOP® Xtra R variant with the same robust features.
Simple and safe connection with ErgoCONTACT® and SafeCONTACT
Our 63 and 125 A plugs and sockets are equipped with screw contact connection technology. ErgoCONTACT®, the specially developed, innovative and convenient screw contact connection technology, is available for plugs and connector in 16 and 32 A. This allows safe and easy, ergonomically sound installation: in this case the screwdriver is not applied from the side, but straight on - in this way the screw pressure is directed into the handle. The screw trajectory is also supported by a guide collar. This prevents slipping and minimises the risk of injury. Only one screw is needed per contact - a captive combination head screw that is permanently integrated in the guide collar and can be operated with both a Phillips and a slotted screwdriver. All screws point in the same direction. This means that you no longer have to turn the front part by hand in order to tighten the contact screws of the individual poles one after the other - thus saving time.
Our 16 and 32 A plugs and sockets are also available in the PowerTOP® Xtra S version with SafeCONTACT, the screwless insulation displacement connection technology. In this case you no longer have to strip or pretreat the conductors - which saves more than half the usual connection time as well as later maintenance!
Convenient assembly - with minimal use of tools
We have perfected the assembly process for our PowerTOP® Xtra family even further: with the aid of the self-locating thread of the housing, a locking slide and the cable gland, you can assemble our plugs and sockets easily and quickly with just a few tools.
Energy-saving plugging and unplugging - with X-CONTACT®
All PowerTOP® Xtra connectors are equipped with our contact sleeve technology: X-CONTACT®. The sleeves are slotted in the shape of an X and are made of resilient, elastic material. Hence, when plugging in, the pin of the plug simply pushes open the contact sleeve opening of theconnector. This makes it particularly easy for you to connect and disconnect plugs and couplings - with up to 50 percent less effort! Even with high currents of 63 and 125 A, you can connect or disconnect the plug and connector all by yourself.
On the PowerTOP® Xtra connectors in 63 and 125 A, the inner walls of the X-CONTACT® sleeves are also grooved. The combination of internal grooves, resilient material and slots in the sleeves ensure that the plug and connector are mated in an optimal, secure manner. And: Due to the nature of the contact sleeves, dirt and surface corrosion rub off automatically when plugging and unplugging. Even with rough handling and frequent plugging and unplugging under load, there are no signs of wear and the material remains fatigue-free. This means that you can use our PowerTOP® Xtra plugs and sockets "made in Germany" safely and reliably for many years.
