EasySplit 220™ #31 Miele splitter box model 057B replacement | 5ft. cable NEMA 10-30 (before 1996) to two 14-30 outlets with kWh meter
The EasySplit 220™ #31 is a Miele Easy Installation Kit model 057B replacement. It allows you to share your 3-prong Dryer outlet with two appliances equipped with 14-30 plugs. Allows both to share the 30 amp Dryer outlet, no more swapping plugs wearing out your Dryer outlet! Older Miele washer and Dryers were 240volt appliances and came equipped with 30amp plugs but the appliance was only rated at 15amps. If you were not able to install TWO 240v 15amp circuits the Miele Easy Installation Kit model 057B allowed you to plug in a Miele Washer and Dryer into a single American 3-prong 240volt 30amp outlet (NEMA 10-30). It is essentially a 30amp splitter and allows both appliances to run at the same time as they were only rated at 15amps each. (verify amps on your appliance's nameplate).
In addition the EasySplit 220™ #31 adds a beautiful 4 color meter that the original Miele unit didn't have allowing you to view line voltage, amperage draw, wattage draw and kilowatt hours consumed in real time. The meter helps you keep an eye on amperage draw and stay within the 30amp budget. The outlets are mounted on the sides for a more compact profile with the EasySplit 220™ standing just 4" from the wall. Great for apartment dwellers or temp housing. Housed in a high strength Polycarbonate enclosure measuring 10.00 x 7.00 x 4.06 in / 254.00 x 177.80 x 103.12 mm This unit is built with a 10-30 plug and two 14-30 outlets.

Need some help identifying your wall outlet? We can help! Below is a description of the more common NEMA outlets and their numbers as well as some handy NEMA plug charts. You can also email us a pic of your plugs and outlets you need help identifying and we would be happy to help.
Here are the more common NEMA outlets:
- 5-15 standard 15A 120 volt household outlet, the most common you see everywhere.
- 5-20 standard 20A 120 volt household outlet, required by code in bathroom and behind your refrigerator.
- 6-15 standard 15A 240 volt household outlet, found in homes and motels for running in-wall Air Conditioners, it’s the smaller brother to the NEMA 6-20 outlet. The 5-20 is not as common as a 6-20 outlet with it’s “T” shaped slot as it will accept both 6-20 and 6-15 plugs.
- 6-20 standard 20A 240 volt household outlet, found in homes and motels for running in-wall Air Conditioners, also found occasionally in residential garages.
- 6-50 standard 50A 240 volt 3-prong outlet, found in shops and garages used for large welders.
- 10-30 standard 30A 240 volt 3-prong Dryer outlet found in homes build before 1996
- 14-30 standard 30A 240 volt 4-prong Dryer outlet found in homes build in 1996 and newer
- 14-50 standard 50A 240 volt 4-prong Range (electric stove top) outlet, also called RV-50 at the RV parks. By far the best universal connector to have for an EVSE. This is the one the Tesla guys install in their garages.
- TT-30 (Travel Trailer 30amp) 30A 120 volt 3-prong outlet, the older style found in RV parks, not used in residential homes.
- L6-30 (locking 240 volt 30amp) Twist-Lock 30A 240 volt outlet, my personal favorite locking connector, easy to find in stores, works great for adding adapters to portables EVSE’s equipped with a L6-30 plug.
220/240 volt outlets are commonly install with the ground pin towards the ceiling for safety. 110/120 volt outlets can be found mounted in all directions. Be sure to carefully look at your outlet and the chart, it's easy to mistake one outlet for another if your outlet has it's ground pin facing the floor instead of the ceiling or Vice Versa compared to the chart.
In the full NEMA number you will see a capital R or P. The R stands for Receptacle (outlet) and the P stands for Plug, we commonly truncate this to just the numbers and add the word receptacle (or outlet) at the end. For example 14-50R becomes 14-50 receptacle or 14-50 outlet.
Need some extra length between your Dryer outlet and EasySplit 220™ or between the EasySplit 220™ and your Electric Vehicle Charging Station (EVSE)? I custom build extension cords to the length your need and with the plug and outlet of your choice, see my extensions in the Adapter’s section for several models; Extension Cords
