Plugs and sockets for industrial applications
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
......................................................................................................................................................
For years SCAME has been offering a wide range of high-quality industrial plugs and sockets complying with EN 60309-1 and 60309-2 European standards, gaining a leading position in the domestic and export markets.
SCAME's industrial plugs and sockets are reliable, robust, easy to wire and provide outstanding resistance to weathering and to chemicals. All of which assures safe operation, even in the most adverse environmental conditions.
These standards govern appliances with rated operating voltage not exceeding 690V, 500 Hz and rated current not exceeding 125A, and are mainly designed for application in the manufacturing and service industry, on building sites and similar uses.
The main purpose of the standards is to prevent accidental or deliberate mismating of plugs and connections which are not compatible in terms of voltage, current, frequency, polarity and type of use, which might therefore cause personal harm as well as damage to the electric appliances which they connect.

REFERENCE STANDARDS
STANDARD IEC60309
...................................................................................................................................................... The plugs and sockets for industrial applications comply with European standards:
- EN 60309-1
Plugs, sockets-outlets and couplers for industrial purposes
Part 1: General requirements
- EN 60309-2
Plugs, sockets-outlets and couplers for industrial purposes
Part 2: Dimensional interchangeability requiresements for pin and contact-tube accessories of harmonised configurations.
which are equivalent to international standards IEC 309-1 and IEC 309-2.
The standards EN 60309-1 and EN 60309-2 (equivalent to IEC 60309.1 and IEC 60309-2) have been adopted by all the european members of CENELEC (Comité Européen de la Normalisation ELECtrotechnique): Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Norway, The Netherlands, Portugal, United Kingdom, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland. Many other countries, although not aknowledging the need to standardise both out of safety considerations and with the objecti of improving performance and sales. Plugs and sockets manufactured according to these standards are in use today across Europe, in the Middle East, Africa, the Pacific Rim, the Far East, North and South America. A further extension of the international standardisation of plugs and sockets for industrial applications will doubtless lead to simplification in the exchange of goods and services. For instance, manufacturing machines will be fitted with plugs that can match the sockets installed in any country, refrigerated containers will always find ports equipped for connection of compressors. Campers, caravans, leisure boats, electric cars will have no problems plugging into power supply posts when travelling abroad.
MAIN STANDARD REQUIREMENTS
......................................................................................................................................................
The standards which govern the use of industrial plugs and sockets both for alternating current (frequency up to 500 Hz) and for direct current, distinguish the two categories by operating voltage:
- Extra-Low voltage plugs and sockets with operating voltage up to 50V
- Low voltage plugs and sockets with operating voltage above 50V and up to 690V
Executions with 2-3-4-5 contacts and rated current carrying capacities of 16-32-63-125 A are considered.
Each application requires a specific execution which differs from all others and built-in obstacles so as to make it impossible to insert a plug into any other socket than its matching one in terms of current carrying capacity, voltage, frequency, number of contacts and type of application.
Low voltage >50V
In low voltage >50V versions, the obstacle is provided by two elements:
- a keyway (on the socket) with a matching key (on the plug)
- a larger earth contact than the other contacs, situated in different clock-face positions depending on the characteristics of use.
When the socket is viewed from the front, the clock-face position (h) of the earth contact is found by taking as a reference the keyway, which is always situated at 6 o'clock.
Extra-low voltage <50V
In extra-low voltage <50V versions without earth contact, the obstacle is provided by two references:
- The major consists of a keyway on the plug, matching a key on the socket, which is always situated at 6 o'clock;
- the minor also consist of a keyway (plug) and key (socket), but situated in different positions around the clock-face position depending on the characteristics of use.
Viewing the socket from the front, the clock-face position (h) of the minor keyway is found by talking as a reference the major keyway, which is always situated at 6 o'clock.
The 63 A and 125 A sockets must be fitted with a pilot contact to activate an interlock if required.

IEC 309 AND EUREKA SERIES FAST AND EASY CABLING
......................................................................................................................................................
SCAME's plugs and sockets have a very special design. Their terminals are easy to get to and are already open and aligned, the cable clamp swivels and has its screw already unscrewed, the casings are semi-screwed and the cable glands are not completely closed. All this to help you save time when cabling.
CONNECTORS FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
......................................................................................................................................................
Electric vehicles mean reduced air pollution and improvement of quality of life.
Tomorrow's vehicle - electrically powered cars, motorcycles, bicycles with aided pedal stroke - are becoming an increasing reality, also thanks to SCAME, a company that always believed that dreams could become true.
facing this challenge, SCAME designed new connectors for vehicles and supply stations, enabling supply from specific columns or from the home garage.
The outcome is the LIBERA Series of adapters, plugs, movable and flush sockets, complying with the evolution of the standards promoted by CIVES - the Italian Commission for Electric Road Vehicles - which are becoming actual reference standards.
RECHARGE OF ELECTRIC ROAD VEHICLES
......................................................................................................................................................
During the nineties, the development of electric vehicles remained at experimental level; however, the increasing environmental pollution and the funds provided both by the European Union and the various Governments aimed at reducing harmful emissions in the environment, will increasingly spread the use of this means of transportation. The introduction of electric vehicles involves the availability of places and sources of power supply, where the vehicle can be connected to the power distribution plant. Depending upon the place where recharge columns will be installed, be they private places with access allowed only to authorized staff, or pubblic places where access is allowed to everybody, the supply of electric power could be or not subject to payment. This could be made for instance by charging the amount of the power withdraw to the credit card, as it happens with normal vehicles at fuel stations.
According to draft European Standard ENV 50275, there are four different methods to recharge electric vehicles, depending upon the type of connection choosen:
Recharge method n°1:
Connection of the electric vehicle to the a.c. mains - mains side - by means of single-or three-phase standard plugs and using the phase/s, the neutral and the protection conductor.
Standard plugs, mains side, are those complying with the requirements of national and international standards.
Recharge method n°2:
Connection of electric vehicle to the a.c. mains - mains side - by means of single-or three-phase standard plugs using the phase/s, the neutral and the protection conductor with the addition of control functions between the electric vehicle and the plug or the control box as specified at item 6.4. The control box shall be mounted on the cable at a distance of no more than 0.3 mt from the plug or from the EAVE.
Recharge method n°3:
Direct connection of the electric vehicle to the a.c. mains by means of dedicated supply equipment, where the control functions specified at item 6.4 are extended to the portion of equipment permanently connected to the a.c. mains.
Recharge method n°4:
Indirect connection of the electric vehicle to the a.c. mains by means of an outboard battery charger, where the control functions specified at item 6.4 are extended to the portion of equipment permanently connected to the a.c. mains.
The above mentioned standard indicates specific requirements, which may be either compulsory or optional, for each of the above recharge method. Italian manufacturers of electric vehicles decided not to use recharge method n°1, because it does not provide any control on the soundness of the protection circuit before supplying power to the vehicles, which might result into safety problems for the user. In view of this concen, the IEC has requested a special condition of use; as a consequence, ENV 50275 specifies that recharge method n°1 should not be used in Italy.
TECHNICAL FEATURES
......................................................................................................................................................
Complying with the above indications, SCAME has realised, in collaboration with the manufacturers of electric vehiclses, a connection system consisting of a stationary socket, a movable plug and a movable socket, with the following features:
- rated current: 16A
- rated voltage: 230V
- number of poles 2 + earth +1 back-up terminal
- protection degree: ip44
- high mechanical strenght
- protection against direct contact by means of protection guards (same as for domestic plugs).
The decision to design a conector which is not compatible with existing plugs is based on the following safety considerations:
a) electric vehicles, in general, have the battery charger on board, to enable recharge from different sources, without any dedicated equipment. Battery chargers include semiconductor devices to rectify the electric current; in case of failure, these may generate fault currents whose wave shape is influenced by direct current elements. Such d.c. elements are detected in a different way by the various types of differential devices used in the electric systems, namely:
- AC differentials, which are used the most in domestic applications, are not able to detect unidirectional currents and currents influenced by the d.c. elements of the fault current;
- type A differentials are able to detect sinusoidal faults currents, unidirectional fault currents and currents influenced by d.c. elements of the fault current up to 6 mA;
- type B differentials are able to detect sinusoidal fault currents, unidirectional fault currents, and fault currents influenced by d.c. elemnts with no value limit.
The use of a connector which is not compatible with any existing system involves the installation of the new part; it is therefore assumed that the user adopting the new stationary socket takes care also of the propter protection against indirect contacts.
b) the protection of the active pits of the socket by means of guards able to meet IpxxD protection degree is essential, especially when these sockets are installed in rooms for domestic use; actually in this case the control on the continuity of the grounding system may be neglected and consequently pits could remain always active. The protection of active pits with proper guards not only provides the control on the continuity of the grounding system where required, but assures that no solid foreign matter is introduced into the seat of active pits.
These new connectors will be used first in some public areas for the recharge of motorcycles, which have been arranged in Rome on the occasion of the Jubilee.
The manufacturers, installers and users of electric vehicles will find the new product at electric wholesalers distributing SCAME materials.
