FAQs

For CGB1015 installations, ensure the mating conduit and connectors accept a 1/2 in NPT thread, and verify the cable outer sheath falls within 0.500–0.625 in. Use appropriate sealing compounds and torque to manufacturer recommendations to maintain electrical integrity and NEMA/IEC compatibility in ordinary locations.
The CGB1015 is designed to meet NEC/CEC standards and is suitable for ordinary/non-hazardous locations. This simplifies compliance in general industrial environments and reduces the need for additional protective enclosures or specialized fittings when used with non-armoured cables.
Yes. The CGB1015 is part of the Crouse-Hinds portable cord connector family, engineered for straightforward compatibility with standard gland fittings and non-armoured cables. Field technicians benefit from consistent thread engagement, seal performance, and ease of maintenance when upgrading or expanding existing installations.
Routine inspections should verify the integrity of the gland seal, thread engagement, and cable sheath condition. In ordinary locations, ensure coatings and fittings remain corrosion-resistant, and replace gaskets if signs of wear appear. The steel construction offers durability, but periodic checks help sustain long-term reliability and electrical performance.
Adopting the CGB1015 can reduce downtime through quicker installation and removal, minimize leakage paths with a robust 1/2 in NPT gland, and improve compliance with NEC/CEC standards. The combination of durability, compatibility with non-armoured cables, and straightforward maintenance translates to lower lifecycle costs and improved system reliability.
