Four-wire, three-pole configuration improves fault isolation and safety, reducing mis-wiring during panel assembly and routine maintenance. This design is ideal for control panels and equipment feeds in industrial environments where reliable power distribution is critical. Aluminum housing delivers corrosion resistance and lighter weight, lowering maintenance costs and enabling longer service life in damp or coastal applications. This benefits marine installations and outdoor enclosures where harsh conditions challenge components. Surface mounting simplifies installation by delivering a flush, secure footprint, accelerating commissioning and minimizing enclosure depth. This is particularly valuable in compact switchgear, wall-mounted panels, and retrofits where space is at a premium. Two receptacles in a single unit reduce hardware counts and simplify wiring layouts, enabling more compact power distribution for control panels and industrial racks. Electrical ratings of 20A at 208 VAC ensure direct compatibility with standard industrial feeds, reducing adapters and lowering total installed cost.
