Compatibility
The KUPO K013A-B is manufactured to IEC 60309 dimensional standards and is compatible with KUPO K113, K213, K313, K413. For a correct mate, the connected device should share the same 16A rating, 220-250V voltage class, 2P+E, 3-pole configuration, IP44 protection requirement, and 6h earth contact clock position.
| Use with | CEE Form connectors or receptacles with the same amperage, voltage class, pole configuration, IP rating, and earth-contact clock position. |
|---|---|
| Verify before ordering | Amperage, voltage color, pole count, clock position, IP rating, cable diameter, and terminal size. |
| Do not use with | CEE connectors with different current ratings, different voltage classes, non-matching pole configurations, or a different earth-contact clock position. |
Voltage Color Convention
CEE form connectors use standardized housing colors to help identify voltage class. This black version keeps the same keyed CEE form rating while offering the black housing configuration listed in the product data. The keyed clock position of the earth contact helps prevent cross-mating between incompatible voltage systems, so always verify amperage, voltage, pole configuration, and clock position before installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the KUPO K013A-B and what are its primary specifications?
The KUPO K013A-B is a 16A CEE form male plug for 220-250V power distribution. Primary specifications: Product type: Male Plug, 16 A; Rated voltage: 220-250 V; Rated current: 16 A; Earth Contact Position: 6h; Poles: 2P+E, 3-pole; Protection grade: IP44; Withstand voltage: AC 2500 V; Insulation resistance: 500 V DC 1 min > 5 MΩ. For K013A-B, the important distinction is that it is a male plug in the 16A, 220-250V, 2P+E, 3-pole, IP44, 6h earth position configuration, so it should be selected for that exact CEE form arrangement rather than a nearby SKU with a different pole count, IP grade, or mounting style.
What safety and compliance standards does the K013A-B support?
Certifications listed in product data table: TUV, CB, CE Certification marks shown on PDF: TÜV Rheinland Certified, CB, CE Environmental compliance: RoHS; non-RoHS optional Standards referenced: IEC 60309-1/2:2021; GB/T11918.1/2-2014 Withstand voltage: AC 2500 V Insulation resistance: 500 V DC 1 min > 5 MΩ Certification: TUV, CB, CE Salt spray resistance: > 48 h, no rust Impact test: -25 °C, 16 h, > 0.5 kg, 25°. For K013A-B documentation, keep the matching K013A-B product data sheet with the job file because the certification, withstand-voltage, and insulation-resistance values apply to this specific 16A IP44 male plug variant.
What cable and termination details are listed for the K013A-B?
Terminal type: Screw terminal; Cable entry diameter range: Ø 5.5 - 13.5 mm; Side-view overall height at rear / cable gland side: 60 mm; Cable nominal cross-section area: 1 - 2.5 mm²; Terminal type: Screw terminal. For K013A-B, size the cable and gland around the listed cable entry range Ø 5.5 - 13.5 mm; conductor cross-section 1 - 2.5 mm²; terminal type Screw terminal; using the cable assumptions from a larger or smaller KUPO CEE SKU can lead to poor strain relief or an incorrect termination.
Which product is compatible with the K013A-B?
The product data lists K113, K213, K313, K413 as compatible with K013A-B. For safe mating, the connected product should match the electrical rating, pole configuration, IP rating, and earth contact clock position. For K013A-B, compatibility with K113, K213, K313, K413 depends on the same 16A, 220-250V, 2P+E, 3-pole, IP44, 6h earth position; a connector with a different current rating, voltage color class, pole layout, IP grade, or clock position should not be treated as interchangeable.
Where is the K013A-B typically used?
Designed and manufactured according to IEC 60309-1/2:2021 and GB/T11918.1/2-2014 for factory power distribution, machinery, construction sites, chemical plants, ports, airports, drainage and wastewater projects. Because K013A-B is a 16A IP44 male plug for 220-250V, it fits installations that need that exact current capacity, mounting style, and environmental protection level; choose a different KUPO CEE SKU when the site requires another pole layout or ingress rating.
What dimensions are listed for the K013A-B?
Overall length shown in side view: 142 mm Body length shown in side view: 108 mm Rear body height shown in side view: 47 mm Front-view outside diameter / height: 47 mm Cable entry diameter range: Ø 5.5 - 13.5 mm Side-view overall height at rear / cable gland side: 60 mm Front-view contact layout: 3 contact positions shown, matching 2P+E / 3-pole configuration Cable nominal cross-section area: 1 - 2.5 mm². Use the K013A-B dimensions, including overall length shown in side view 142 mm, body length shown in side view 108 mm, for this exact body style when checking panel space, cable bend radius, cover swing, and service clearance; similar KUPO CEE products may not share the same envelope.
