Product Description
The KUPO K6442 is a 125 A CEE form appliance male inlet for bringing 380-415 V power into equipment, panels, and distribution assemblies. Built around a 3P+E, 4-pole configuration with a 6h keyed earth position, it gives installers a clear, standardized connection point while helping prevent mismating with incompatible CEE systems. Its watertight IP67 housing pairs screw terminals, brass contacts, and flame-retardant nylon (PA) + PC with 650 degrees Celsius glow-wire performance, making it a practical choice for wet and exposed industrial environments.

Compatibility
The KUPO K6442 mates with compatible KUPO products K1442, K2442, K3442, K4442. For a correct connection, match the connected device to the same ratings: 125A, 380-415V, 3P+E, 4-pole, IP67, 6h.
| 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
Red identifies the 380-480V IEC voltage class used by this inlet. 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 K6442 and what are its primary specifications?
The KUPO K6442 is a 125A CEE form appliance male for 380 to 415 V power distribution. It is rated 125 A at 380 to 415 V, with a 3P+E, 4-pole configuration, a 6h earth contact position and IP67 protection. Withstand voltage is AC 2500 V, and insulation resistance is 500 V DC 1 min > 5 MΩ. Choose it for this exact combination of ratings, because nearby CEE form SKUs differ in pole count, IP rating or mounting style.
What safety and compliance standards does the K6442 support?
The K6442 is TÜV Rheinland, CB and CE certified and is designed and manufactured to IEC 60309-1/2:2021 and GB/T 11918.1/2-2014. It is RoHS compliant, with a non-RoHS option available. Test data: withstand voltage AC 2500 V; insulation resistance 500 V DC 1 min > 5 MΩ; salt spray resistance > 48 h, no rust; low-temperature impact test -25 °C, 16 h, > 0.5 kg, 25°.
What cable and termination details are listed for the K6442?
It uses a screw terminal. Conductor cross-section is 16 to 25 mm². Size the cable and gland to these K6442 values. Cable choices made for a larger or smaller CEE form SKU can lead to poor strain relief or an incorrect termination.
Which product is compatible with the K6442?
The K6442 mates with KUPO K1442, K2442, K3442 and K4442. A safe mate needs a connector with the same ratings: 125A, 380 to 415 V, 3P+E, 4-pole, IP67 and 6h earth position. Never treat a connector with a different current rating, voltage color class, pole layout, IP rating or clock position as interchangeable.
Where is the K6442 typically used?
Typical uses include factory power distribution, machinery, construction sites, chemical plants, ports, airports, drainage and wastewater projects. As a 125A IP67 appliance male for 380 to 415 V, it suits installations that need this exact current capacity, mounting style and protection level. Choose a different KUPO CEE form SKU when the site needs another pole layout or IP rating.
What dimensions are listed for the K6442?
Key K6442 dimensions: Front plate size: 120 × 120 mm; Mounting hole spacing: 102 × 102 mm; Front circular opening: Ø 107 mm; Mounting hole diameter: 6.5 mm; Depth: 108 mm; Overall height: 128 mm. Use these figures for this exact body style when checking panel space, cable bend radius, cover swing and service clearance, because similar CEE form products may differ.
