It is my opinion that the industrial plug and socket refered to in IEC 950 is
more the pin and sleeve variety defined by IEC 309. I don't think the twist
lock connectors are allowable for European applications. I could be wrong
however.

Tom,
The definition I've heard for this is "big & twisty". The current
rating is usually 30 A or more, the plug is twisted into the socket,
hence the name. Usually applies to equipment that stays in place.

Hello everyone,
I'm reading 1.2.5.1, 1.2.5.2 IEC-950. One thing which is not very
clear to me is the industrial plug and socket-outlet. Anyone has a
definition for them, or which standard specifies it? TIA
