TE Connectivity TF-E-VA 1SNA166745R0000 is an 8 A, 400 V ENTRELEC ESSAILEC eight-pole voltage test socket with closed contacts, ring-tongue termination and flush mounting for voltage-transformer measurement and distribution circuits.
Why Choose the TE Connectivity TF-E-VA ESSAILEC Voltage Test Socket?
The TE Connectivity TF-E-VA 1SNA166745R0000 is an 8-pole voltage test socket with closed contacts from the established ENTRELEC ESSAILEC test block range. Designed for voltage-transformer secondary circuits, it provides a dedicated interface for measurement, distribution, testing and maintenance applications in switchgear, metering panels and electrical protection systems.
The TF-E-VA uses the closed-contact principle, meaning the electrical connection remains continuous and the circuit stays closed during the testing operation. This makes the socket particularly suitable for measurement and distribution applications where continuity of the voltage circuit must be maintained while test equipment is connected.
Rated at 8 A and 400 V, the TF-E-VA features ring-tongue termination for conductors from 0.34–10 mm² and is designed for flush mounting. Its grey coding follows the ESSAILEC convention for voltage circuits, while the compact 50 × 74 × 57 mm construction supports integration into professional electrical panels.

Reliable Closed-Contact Testing for Voltage Circuits
The TF-E-VA uses a closed-contact principle in which the permanent electrical connection remains continuous when test equipment is introduced. This enables measurement and diagnostic work to be performed while maintaining the voltage circuit, making the socket particularly useful in metering, monitoring and distribution installations.
As part of the ESSAILEC system, the TF-E-VA provides a defined plug-and-socket interface for secondary electrical circuits. Its flush-mounted design, ring-tongue terminations and compatible protective accessories support repeatable commissioning, testing and maintenance procedures in utility and industrial power systems.
