FAQs

The E0400-145 supports 1/0-2/0 AWG cables with crimp termination and a male connector configuration. This enables a single, robust termination for medium to large feeder conductors common in panel assemblies, MCCs, and power distribution feeders. Proper crimp tooling and inspection practices should be followed to ensure a consistent, code-compliant connection.
No. The E0400-145 is specified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations under NEC/CEC standards. It is not intended for Class I/II hazardous environments. For installations in hazardous areas, seek products rated for those classifications and consult your facility’s safety and compliance requirements.
The E0400-145 is rated up to 400A continuous and 600 Vac/dc. This makes it suitable for high-current feeder connections and power distribution panels where reliable, continuous performance is essential, while staying within standard North American electrical codes.
This plug uses a crimp termination with a male contact design in a Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) housing, which supports rapid field terminations and repeatable connections. Its Posi-Lok design helps resist loosening due to vibration, a common reliability concern in control panels and MCCs, reducing rework and maintenance time.
Critical installation resources include EB 168 installation sheets, the Posi-Lok catalog page for plugs and panels, and the Eaton specification sheet for E0400-145. Access these materials to verify wiring configurations, crimp tooling guidance, and compliance considerations for your installation.
