Fig. 8.2.2 Schuko Receptacle CEE 7/3
1.3
In the “Schuko” Receptacle, Type CEE 7/3 (fig 8.2.2), there is NO Neutral and both the
sockets L1 and L2 are HOT/LIVE and will be floating and at elevated voltage with respect
to the metal chassis Ground / Earth Ground as follows:
• 130 VAC ± 10% between the left socket "L1" and the metal chassis Ground / Earth Ground
• 100 VAC ± 10% between the right socket "L2" and the metal chassis Ground / Earth Ground
• 230 VAC ± 3% between the left socket "L1" and the right socket "L2"
The 2 grounding spring contacts (2.2, fig 8.2.2) on the periphery are internally connected
to the metal chassis Ground of the inverter [19, fig 6.1(c)] which is, in turn, connected
to the Earth Ground System of the premises where the inverter is installed. When the
“Schuko” Plug, Type CEE 7/7 (fig 8.2.1) of the Power Cord of the AC load is inserted
into the “Schuko” Receptacle, Type CEE 7/3 (fig 8.2.2) on the inverter, the metal chassis
of the AC load is automatically connected to the Earth Ground System of the premises
where the inverter is installed.
WARninG!
As explained above, in “Schuko” Receptacle, Type CEE 7/3 (fig 8.2.2), there
is NO Neutral and both the L1 and L2 sockets will be HOT / LIVE and will be
at elevated voltage with respect to the metal chassis of the inverter / Earth
Ground. The mating “Schuko” Plug, Type CEE 7/7 (fig 8.2.1) is NOT polarized
i.e. the plug can be inserted in the receptacle in 2 orientations. Ideally, a Double
Pole Switch / Breaker will be required on the load side to safely disconnect both
the HOT / LIVE AC input lines from the internal downstream sections of the AC
load. If a single pole AC Input ON/ Off Switch / Breaker is used on the AC load
for AC input, it is likely that the Switch / Breaker may get connected in series
with the lower voltage current carrying conductor (100 VAC ± 10% with respect
