Description
Panel Mount AC Inlet Power Socket (Model: IN2)
Product Overview
The IN2 Panel Mount AC Inlet Power Socket is a heavy-duty, chassis-mountable electrical interface component engineered to establish a reliable and secure primary alternating current (AC) utility entry point for electronic enclosures, industrial machinery, and desktop instruments. This inlet functions as the standard electrical gateway, allowing equipment to link safely with standard high-voltage utility power line grids via matching external power cords.
Molded from high-impact, flame-retardant engineering thermoplastic, the IN2 features a robust structural profile designed to withstand repeated insertion and extraction forces over thousands of cycles. Equipped with high-conductivity solid copper alloy termination tabs, this power inlet maintains excellent thermal dissipation and low contact resistance, making it an essential hardware component for switching DC power supply arrays, control boxes, and custom electronics enclosures.
Key Features
-
Rugged Snap-In / Screw-Mount Design: Formed with standard structural anchor tabs (Model: IN2 variant geometry) to lock tightly into pre-cut sheet metal, plastic, or aluminum enclosure panels, entirely preventing physical wobbles or push-through failures.
-
Flame-Retardant Thermoplastic Housing: Molded from premium, non-conductive polymer that provides absolute electrical isolation and resists high localized thermal spikes under continuous high-load operations.
-
High-Conductivity Termination Tabs: Features robust, silver-plated copper alloy tabs optimized for secure manual wire soldering or standard quick-disconnect spade crimp terminals.
-
Standard Grounded Configuration: Built with explicit terminal positioning for Phase (L), Neutral (N), and a dedicated Safety Ground (E/GND) pin to guarantee absolute short-circuit protection and safe chassis implementation.
-
Excellent Solder Heat Retention: Internal structural barriers isolate the conduction pins perfectly, ensuring they remain in exact axial alignment even during high-heat manual assembly soldering cycles.

Applications
The primary power entry standard for heavy equipment enclosures, workshop benches, and custom electronic frames:
-
Enclosure Mains AC Power Inputs: Serving as the standard external cord connection hub on custom aluminum project boxes, CNC machinery housings, and 3D printer control frames to pipe in high-voltage utility lines cleanly.
-
Benchtop Instrument Integration: Providing a professional, flush-mount power connection node for variable switching DC power supplies, load banks, and laboratory diagnostic racks.
-
Industrial Automation Control Panels: Acting as the main single-phase AC disconnect junction point feeding power to step down transformers, relays, and motor control grids.
-
Power Distribution Unit (PDU) Builds: Ideal for fabricating custom benchtop extension strips, heavy-duty surge boxes, and dedicated power charging bays housed in steel panels.
