The Siemens 5UB1838 is a green Schuko socket outlet from the DELTA style series, designed for flush-mounted indoor use. Its spring-loaded hinged cover snaps shut when the socket is not in use, keeping out dust and preventing accidental contact while maintaining a clean, flush appearance on the wall.

When Would You Specify the Green Variant?

Color-coded socket outlets let electricians and facility managers identify dedicated circuits at a glance — green is commonly assigned to safety-related, IT, or designated equipment circuits in both residential and commercial buildings. The 68×68mm cover plate integrates seamlessly with the standard DELTA style frame system, so the color stands out without breaking the visual consistency of the installation.

Installation Notes

The 5UB1838 uses plug-in terminals for fast, tool-free wiring and mounts into standard flush-mount back boxes via claw and/or screw fixing. It accepts all CEE 7/4 (Schuko) plugs. The halogen-free thermoplastic housing meets VDE 620 and is RoHS compliant.
