MK Electric, manufacturer of wiring
devices and accessories, is replacing
its award-winning Masterseal range
with a collection of enhanced IP-rated
products called Masterseal Plus.

Sealed and tested by MK to exceed
British Standards, the new products
protect the electrical supply in the
harshest of environments. As with its
predecessor,Masterseal Plus is
suitable for use in both outdoor and
indoor environments, and where
wiring devices and accessories would
be at risk from penetration by dust
or water.With an IP66 rating,
Masterseal Plus is dust-tight to any
ingress and offers complete protection
against contact. High pressure water
jets from any direction will not have
any harmful effects.

The company says Masterseal Plus
sockets can be used with virtually
any standard 13A plug. Added
features include a seating spout to
house moulded on plugs, an
improved lid catch for easy opening,
as well as a fixed gasket and rear drill
holes to ensure easier installation.

Masterseal Plus enclosures are
designed to house Logic Plus switch
and socket variants. Terminal screws
are backed out and captive, and
terminals are upwards facing to
make installation easier. For safety,
there is the IEC 3mm minimum gap
across the switch break; all standard
sockets have MK’s three-pin operated
‘child resistant shutter system’ to
inhibit access to the electricity supply
unless all 3 pins of a standard British
13A plug are in position.
