Check The Device For Defects - Mennekes EverBOX Grip Manuel D'utilisation

Special feature with Schuko® plug
Due to the design, for Schuko® IP 44 / IP 54, electrical con­
sumers with Schuko® plug and a protection class higher
than IP 44 / IP 54 (IP 66, IP 68 / DWD = pressurised water­
tight) do not establish adequate contact when plugged into
the device.
The same applies for AC adapters and right angle plugs.
These devices must not be operated together.
The Schuko® sockets and couplings concerned are
identified by a plug symbol (1) (see Fig.).
Fig.: 4. Plug symbol
You must be able to plug the electrical consumer to be
connected completely into the socket. A suitable plug is
characterised by its tight fit (similar to "locking into place")
in the socket.
This ensures proper contact between the plug and the
socket.
Schuko® plugs must have a perimeter ridge on the plug
enclosure to achieve the required tightness and to main­
tain the protection class in the plugged­in state.
f Only connect electrical consumers with suitable plugs
to the device.
f Do not connect electrical consumers with right angle
plugs or power adapters.
