connecting 16A plug to PAT tester — Connecting equipment with a 16A plug to a PAT tester

The appliance adaptor connects tools and equipment fitted with 16A plugs to a standard PAT tester. This enables the earth continuity, insulation resistance and leakage tests to be carried out.

connecting 16A socket to PAT tester — Connecting a 16A extension lead to the PAT tester

The extension adaptor allows extension leads with blue 16A connectors to be tested. The adaptor connects the socket/coupler end of the extension lead to the IEC connector on the PAT tester. This creates a circuit enabling the earth continuity, insulation resistance and polarity tests to be carried out.

The blue colour coding is designated for equipment operating at voltages between 200 and 250V. Industrial connectors are commonly used in factories, workshops, agriculture, theatres, and the event industry. They are also widely used for outdoor power applications where protection against the elements is required, such as in the marine and leisure industries.

Industrial connectors are available in 16A, 32A, 63A and 125A sizes, but 16A and 32A are the most often encountered whilst PAT testing. We also have a 32A adaptor kit available.

These adaptors are constructed with BS EN 60309 connectors made by PCE, a leading manufacturer of high quality connectors based in Austria.
