Eaton Specification Sheet - E1012-61
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The E1012-61 uses a reinforced thermoplastic housing and brass contacts to deliver high-current performance with vibration resistance. This translates to fewer field failures and lower maintenance costs in continuous-run equipment. In applications like CNC machines, conveyors, and pumps, the connector remains reliable under harsh conditions, reducing unplanned downtime. The compatibility with #2-1/0 AWG cables enables broad cable routing options, while the set screw connection ensures secure, time-saving installation. Cable and current specs provide up to 315A continuous and 550A intermittent at 120 VAC, delivering headroom for peak loads without overheating. This helps streamline panel design and reduce total installed cost by avoiding unnecessary splices or parallel connections. Durability and safety features include a robust reinforced thermoplastic housing for impact resistance, a vivid red color for visibility in busy facilities, and a NEMA 1 enclosure rating aligned with NEC/CEC compliance for ordinary/non-hazardous locations.
