Cast Brass Watertight 3-Pin Receptacle with Switch

This cast brass watertight 3-pin receptacle with an integrated switch is engineered for demanding marine environments. The robust brass housing resists corrosion, while the IP66-rated seal keeps out fresh water and seawater spray, making it ideal for deck, engine room, and dockside power connections. The built-in switch provides convenient local disconnection and safe control of connected equipment.

Designed for surface mounting, the receptacle accepts standard 3-pin marine plugs and provides a secure, weatherproof connection for lighting, pumps, battery chargers, and other shipboard electrical equipment. The switch mechanism is rated for frequent use, and the terminal chamber is arranged for straightforward wiring in confined spaces.

As a ship chandler supply, this watertight receptacle is a practical replacement or upgrade for older corroded units. Its all-brass construction ensures long service life aboard commercial vessels, workboats, yachts, and offshore installations.
