The TE Connectivity PC-E-C5A 1SNA166769R1000 is an ENTRELEC ESSAILEC test socket designed to provide controlled access to secondary electrical circuits used for current and voltage measurement, monitoring and protection. The ESSAILEC system is widely suited to switchgear, metering panels and protection installations where engineers need a convenient interface for commissioning, testing and maintenance.
As part of the ESSAILEC plug-and-socket system, the PC-E-C5A enables test equipment to interface with permanently installed circuits without repeatedly altering the fixed panel wiring. ESSAILEC test blocks support operations including current and voltage measurement, monitoring, signal injection and the repair or replacement of meters and protection relays connected to transformer and sensor secondary circuits.
The ESSAILEC platform incorporates features intended to improve test safety and efficiency, including coded plug-and-socket arrangements, protection against reverse plug insertion and individual traceability on the insulating body. Multiple mounting and connection technologies within the range allow ESSAILEC components to be integrated into a variety of industrial and utility panel designs.
ESSAILEC test blocks are engineered to make testing operations on transformer and sensor secondary circuits easier to perform. Combining a fixed socket with a removable plug allows technicians to connect measurement or test equipment through a defined interface, reducing the need to disconnect and reconnect permanent installation wiring during routine work.
The system is suitable for measurement, monitoring, injection, commissioning and maintenance procedures involving meters and protection relays. Coding between ESSAILEC plugs and sockets helps minimise circuit-selection errors, while protection against reverse insertion contributes to dependable use in demanding switchgear and power-system environments.
