Why Choose the ABB M1173L Modular Socket?
The ABB M1173L, type M1173-L, is a modular Italian P30 standard socket outlet designed for installation in civil and industrial electrical distribution boards. Rated at 16 A and 250 V AC, it provides a convenient mains connection point for electrical devices, tools and other non-modular equipment within a switchboard or control-panel installation.
This version incorporates an integrated indicator light to provide visual indication of voltage presence. The socket also features enhanced contact protection through safety shutters over the socket openings, helping provide a practical and protected connection point within electrical distribution equipment.
Finished in grey RAL 7035, the M1173-L occupies 2.5 modular spacings and has a compact modular enclosure suitable for distribution-board mounting. Its combination of Italian P30 compatibility, voltage indication and ABB modular construction makes it particularly useful in commercial, industrial and building-services installations.
