MK Electric – the UK’s leading manufacturer of wiring devices and accessories – has complemented the launch of its Masterseal PlusTM range of IP66 rated products with the MK ShieldTM range, developed for light domestic use – such as gardening equipment and pond pumps.
                                               

Tested well in excess of British Standards, the MK ShieldTM range of plugs and sockets is rated to IP56, where it offers complete protection against contact and, although ingress of dust is not entirely prevented, it is at such a reduced level it does not interfere with the satisfactory operation of equipment.

Similarly, water projected in powerful jets against the enclosure from any direction will not have any harmful effects. Available in grey, white or with a clear cover, MK ShieldTM
is suitable for small to medium-sized commercial projects and domestic applications – such as small business units, workshops and restaurant kitchens. MK ShieldTM products are guaranteed for an outstanding 10 years.
