Abstract (en)

The classic abutment means of the conductors of the flexible connection cable to the electric mains are substituted by a standard IEC plug integrated on a planar face of the power distribution block, the perimeter of which is eventually extended to constitute a flange-plate around the triplet of conductors of the plug. A collar, integral with the body of the block and of the flange-plate crossed by conductors of the standard IEC plug, with a size suitable for accommodating at least part of a standard IEC angular socket connected with the conductors of the integrated IEC plug, protrudes from the planar surface of the flange-plate. The lower part of the collar has a half-circular cut through which the flexible isolated connection cable to the electric mains passes. A box-like cover, having a similar half-circular cut in the lower side, is forcibly engaged on the collar thus locking as a guillotine the cable passing through the half-circular cuts until a stable union of the two bodies is established. The two parts, permanently unified and thus non separable without using a hand tool, enclose in a splash and drip proof box the connection between the fixed (integrated) IEC plug and the detachable IES socket of the connection cable to an electric socket of the mains.
