G'day
Okay multiple days searching
google has provided minimal results for me :-(
I am trying to source a 220-250v 16A (but will look at higher) IP69k rated surface mount
power inlet. I am open to pin configuration as this will only be on the
boat side and the other will be matched to our Marina.
I am planning to mount this up on the bow on a vertical area at the back of the windless well on our
boat. This area can be submerged often in heavy
weather. It may not seem like a good idea to put it there but if I can get the right component then it should not be a problem and this is by far the best spot for us to
plug in.
Please I'm not looking to debate my decision I am only asking for help in locating a suitable inlet.
I have only found Gewiss that indicates they make one but cannot get a response. It also may only be 69k rated when mated to a cord. When mated to a cord/lead 68 rating would be more than adequate and 67 would suffice however while under way I think IP69K rating would be required to handle sudden pressure changes from when green
water is breaking over the bow.
Any help is appreciated.
BTW I am already considering a
deck plate with the inlet recessed behind but in this location it will involve considerable
work and glassing so is only a last resort answer for me.
Thanks again
