Overview

The Vimar Supernova Series S17 is a flat SPA17 2P+E Italian plug for 16 A, 250 V AC circuits, with a 90° cable entry that keeps the cord close to the outlet instead of projecting straight out. That low-profile shape is useful on board where a plug sits near cabin furniture, behind equipment, or anywhere clearance is limited.

It uses screw terminals for field wiring and a thermoplastic body with IP20 protection. In practical terms, this makes it a good fit for dry interior spaces and portable leads on boats that use the Italian 2P+E 16 A format, while exposed deck areas, wet lockers, and washdown zones call for a higher level of sealing.

Key features

• Italian standard SPA17 flat plug with 2P+E layout, rated 16 A and 250 V AC
• 90° cable entry helps the cord run neatly along bulkheads, furniture, or equipment faces
• Screw-terminal wiring for rewirable portable cords and service leads
• Thermoplastic housing with IP20 protection for dry, protected installation areas
• Available in black or white with the same electrical format across both listed versions

Variants

This product is offered in two color configurations.

The listed variants differ by finish only. The 16 A / 250 V rating, Italian SPA17 2P+E format, 90° cable entry, screw-terminal connection, and IP20 protection remain the same across both versions.

• VM00207: Black. This version suits black sockets, darker panels, or trim where a lighter plug would stand out more.
• VM00207.B: White. This version suits white outlets and lighter interior finishes where a cleaner visual match is preferred.

Compatibility and fit

Check that the outlet on the boat uses the Italian 2P+E 16 A pattern and that the circuit is 250 V AC. This is a portable cord-end plug rather than a fixed outlet, so it works where a rewirable plug is needed for an appliance lead, extension lead, or similar onboard power connection. The flat body and side cable exit are especially helpful where the socket sits close to joinery or equipment.

Installation and setup

The screw-terminal layout keeps wiring straightforward for a qualified installer. On a boat, the cable size, conductor preparation, and strain relief should match the cord being used and the load on the circuit. Because the housing is IP20, this plug belongs in protected interior areas rather than locations exposed to spray, rain, or routine washdowns.

Use on board

This plug makes sense for boats with Italian-style AC sockets that need a low-profile connection for cabin appliances, chargers, or portable service leads. It is also a sensible match for refit work where the plug needs to sit neatly against interior furniture without forcing the cable into a tight bend.
