C23 / C24 - High-Temperature Class II 16 A (IEC 60320)
Two-pole 16 A high-temperature connector - the class II counterpart to C21/C22.
The C23/C24 plug is the two-pole (class II) high-temperature variant in the IEC 60320 family. Practical applications are narrow - in 16 A high-temperature use cases a protective earth is usually required, so C21/C22 is the much more frequently chosen variant.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is C23/C24 so rare?
16 A at 155 deg C without protective earth is a very narrow niche - most heating and industrial devices have a protective earth (C21/C22).
