3-Phase to Single Phase 32A 5-Pin Red Plug to 16A 230v Coupler

HDIUK 3-Phase to Single-Phase 32 A Converter Lead | 400 V 5-Pin Plug to 230 V 32 A Coupler
Safely power 230 V equipment from a 400 V three-phase socket — no rewiring required. Many factories, workshops, and venues have only 5-pin (3P + N + E) outlets installed. The HDIUK 32 A converter lets you run single-phase tools and appliances directly from these sockets, avoiding costly electrical modifications.

Professional-Grade Power Conversion

Assembled in the UK using 4 mm² Arctic Blue PVC flex (BS 6004 Arctic Flex), the HDIUK 3-Phase to Single-Phase 32 A Converter Lead draws one phase (L1), Neutral (N) and Earth (E) from a 400 V supply to create a safe 230 V output. It connects a red 5-pin 32 A CEE plug to a blue 3-pin 32 A CEE coupler and delivers up to ≈ 7.3 kW for heavy-duty equipment.

Key Features

• Input: 400 V 32 A CEE Red 5-Pin Plug (3P + N + E)
• Output: 230 V 32 A CEE Blue Coupler (2P + E)
• Cable: 4 mm² Arctic Blue PVC flex – cold-rated, flexible and tough
• Capacity: 32 A @ 230 V (≈ 7.3 kW)
• Compliance: IEC 60309 / BS EN 60309-2 standards
• Tested & Certified: PAT-tested and assembled in Hampshire by HDIUK Ltd

How It Works (Plain English)

The HDIUK 3-Phase to Single-Phase 32 A Converter Lead taps one live phase (L1) plus Neutral and Earth to generate 230 V AC — the same voltage as a standard UK socket. L2 and L3 remain isolated internally, providing safe single-phase power from a 5-pin supply.

When to Use the 16 A Version

If your socket flap shows 16 A instead of 32 A, you need the smaller model with 1.5 mm² Arctic Blue cable. See our HDIUK 3-Phase to Single-Phase 16 A Converter Lead.

Adapting 32 A Sockets for 16 A Equipment

If your socket is 32 A but your appliance uses a 16 A plug, pair this lead with our HDIUK 32 A Plug to 16 A Coupler (230 V) Converter Cable to step the connection down safely without rewiring.
