The Siemens 5UB1844-1 is a silver Schuko socket outlet from the DELTA style series with a built-in status indicator — a small green light that confirms the socket is live without reaching for a tester. Its open-front design suits areas where sockets get frequent use and a hinged cover would be impractical.

Status Indicator vs. Standard Bezel — What is the Difference?

The 5UB184x uncovered models feature an active status display (Betriebsanzeige): a built-in LED that lights up when the socket is powered. This is distinct from the standard 5UB185x bezel models, which use only a passive colored ring for circuit identification. The status indicator is useful in control rooms, server cabinets, and maintenance areas where confirming power at a glance saves time during troubleshooting.

Installation Notes

The 5UB1844-1 uses plug-in terminals for fast wiring and mounts into standard flush-mount back boxes via claw and/or screw fixing. The silver finish pairs with metallic switch frames. Halogen-free thermoplastic, RoHS compliant, VDE 620 certified.
