CEE Industrial Plugs & Sockets
PC Electric (PCE) is an Austrian manufacturer and world leader in the development and production of CEE industrial plugs and sockets, with products exported to over 80 countries.
Founded on a commitment to innovation, quality, and fast delivery, PCE has built a catalogue of more than 22,000 items manufactured to ISO 9001 quality standards — covering everything from standard cable plugs to heavy-duty connectors for the most demanding industrial environments.
CEE plugs and sockets are internationally standardised under IEC 60309, making them the go-to choice for safe, reliable power connection across industrial installations worldwide. Colour-coded by voltage and keyed by frequency and phase configuration, CEE connectors are designed to prevent mismating — a critical safety feature in mining, port, and industrial environments where incorrect connection can be catastrophic.
Leveltec supplies PC Electric’s CEE industrial plugs and sockets to the Australian and New Zealand markets, covering the full current range from 16A through to 125A.
Product Range
CEE Plugs & Connectors — 16A to 125A
PCE’s cable plug range covers 3, 4, and 5-pole configurations across all standard current ratings. Available in IP44 and IP67 protection ratings, these plugs are built for reliable performance in wet, dirty, and demanding conditions. Housing options include PA6 polyamide, two-component PA6/TPE (rubberised), and heavy-duty versions for 63A and 125A applications. Multiple series are available — including the SHARK, GRIP, TWIST, and POWER TWIST ranges — each designed to suit different installation requirements around ease of connection, cable entry, and environmental exposure.
Current ratings and typical cable cross-sections:
- 16A: 2.5mm² flexible to 4mm² solid
- 32A: 6mm² flexible to 10mm² solid
- 63A: 16mm² flexible to 25mm² solid
- 125A: 50mm² flexible to 70mm² solid
CEE Wall Sockets & Flanged Sockets
PCE’s wall and flanged socket range provides fixed installation solutions for power distribution points across industrial sites. Available in straight and sloping flange configurations, with options for top, bottom, rear, and through-wiring entries. Protection ratings from IP44 to IP67, with nickel-plated contact options for improved corrosion resistance. Compatible with PCE’s full plug range and IEC 60309 standards.
CEE Angled Plugs
Angled plug options suit installations where straight cable entry isn’t practical — tight enclosures, panel-mounted connections, or applications with limited bend radius. Available in 16A and 32A ratings across 3, 4, and 5-pole configurations with screwless housing locking and anti-kink protection.
Phase Inverter Plugs
PCE’s phase inverter plugs allow for quick and safe rotation of phase sequence without rewiring. Available in 16A and 32A, 4 and 5-pole, with nickel-plated brass contacts and screwless locking systems.
Applications
PCE CEE plugs and sockets are used across a wide range of industrial and commercial applications:
- Mining and industrial power distribution
- Refrigerated containers (reefer connections)
- Electric vehicle charging infrastructure
- High-frequency airport ground power
- Welding equipment and industrial machinery
- Port and maritime power connections
Frequently Asked Questions
CEE refers to industrial plugs and sockets that comply with IEC 60309. The standard defines colour-coding by voltage, keying by frequency and phase configuration, and dimensional tolerances — all designed to prevent incorrect mating in industrial power systems. The term “CEE” comes from the International Commission on rules for the approval of Electrical Equipment.
Leveltec supplies PC Electric plugs and sockets from 16A through to 125A, covering 3, 4, and 5-pole configurations and voltage ranges from 50V to 1000V.
PCE products are available in IP44 (splash-protected) and IP67 (watertight / temporary submersion). IP44 suits most sheltered industrial environments; IP67 is recommended for washdown areas, outdoor installations, and high-exposure conditions.
PCE products are manufactured to IEC 60309 (equivalent to EN 60309), which is internationally recognised. PCE holds IECEE CB certifications across their key product lines. Contact Leveltec to confirm suitability for specific Australian site or project requirements.
