Quick Summary
Posi-Lok E0400 plug provides secure, high-current power connections for industrial enclosures in demanding manufacturing environments. This solution addresses reliability challenges common in harsh installations where vibration, loose connections, and improper termination lead to downtime. The design complies with NEC/CEC standards and is classified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, supporting safe operation across typical plant spaces. By coupling a red thermoplastic elastomer housing with a crimp connection and a 1/0-2/0 AWG cable size, it delivers a robust, maintenance-friendly interface. For engineers and procurement teams, the combination of up to 400A continuous rating and 600 Vac/dc capability translates to fewer parts, faster service, and improved compliance across your power-distribution panels.
