FAQs
To install, verify the shell size is 16 and the contact size is #12 AWG. Prepare conductors, apply a suitable crimp to the #12 AWG contacts, and insert the crimped sockets into the 16-shell CZ insert kit. Mate with the corresponding Roughneck plug, then perform a continuity test to ensure a secure, repeatable connection. Use the IF 1688 instructions for step-by-step guidance and ensure compliance with non-hazardous location requirements.
The CZP-16-312-SN is rated for 30A with #12 AWG contacts, featuring a socket contact type and crimp termination in a female configuration. It uses a 16-shell housing and is designed for ordinary, non-hazardous locations. These specs support reliable power distribution and control signaling in demanding industrial environments.
No. The product is classified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. For installations in hazardous areas, consult alternative CZ series components and verify the appropriate certification and location rating before deployment. Always align with site safety standards and regulatory requirements.
A comprehensive set of documents is available, including Roughneck brochures, catalog pages, Canadian UL certification details, installation sheets (IF 1688), and multipin connector specifications.
