The TE Connectivity PC-E-C5A-ICE-8.8 1SNA166684R2400 is a specialist ESSAILEC test socket designed for safe, convenient access to secondary electrical circuits used in measurement, monitoring and protection systems. Part of the established TE Connectivity ENTRELEC ESSAILEC range, this ICE-specific socket provides a reliable interface between permanently installed wiring and compatible test plugs.
ESSAILEC test blocks are engineered for operations including current and voltage measurement, monitoring, signal injection, commissioning and the repair or replacement of meters and protection relays. The PC-E-C5A-ICE-8.8 incorporates an 8.8 coding configuration, helping ensure that the correct compatible plug is connected to the intended circuit and reducing the risk of connection errors during testing.
The ESSAILEC system combines plugs and sockets to allow simultaneous testing of multiple circuits while providing straightforward plug-and-play operation. The PC-E-C5A-ICE-8.8 is an ICE-specific fixed terminal block configuration suitable for professional switchgear, substations, metering panels and protection systems where dependable and repeatable test access is required.
ESSAILEC test blocks provide a dedicated connection interface for electrical testing operations including current and voltage measurement, monitoring, signal injection and maintenance of meters and protection relays. By combining a permanently wired socket with a removable test plug, engineers can gain controlled access to secondary circuits without repeatedly modifying the fixed installation.
The PC-E-C5A-ICE-8.8 adds an 8.8-coded ICE configuration to this modular system. Coding on ESSAILEC plugs and sockets helps minimise the risk of circuit-selection errors, while protection against reverse plug insertion further supports dependable operation during commissioning, scheduled testing and maintenance.
