Grounding plug EU, Type 2

Earthing plug EU, type 2 is a laboratory grounding accessory intended for connection to building services and house technical systems. It provides a defined resistance of 1 Megaohm and is fitted with three 10 mm push-button contacts for rapid attachment of earthing leads. The type 2 EU configuration matches common laboratory infrastructure, supporting controlled discharge paths for electrophoresis power supplies and related analytical instruments. Supplied as a single piece, the compact plug integrates easily beside power units without occupying significant bench space. From manufacturer SCAT, this earthing interface addresses everyday safety needs where standardised grounding to the building earthing system is required. The combination of 1 Megaohm resistance and multiple push-button terminals helps limit fault currents while keeping set-up straightforward. Suitable for gel electrophoresis, blotting and other techniques that rely on protective earthing of power supplies, it contributes to safer routine operation in analytical and life-science laboratories. Use wherever a reliable EU type 2 earthing plug with three 10 mm contacts is specified for connection to house technology.
