Eaton Crouse-Hinds E1012-65K Cam-Lok plug - NEC/CEC
Part Number: E1012-65K
Quick Summary
Eaton Crouse-Hinds Cam-Lok E1012 plug provides fast, reliable power connections for heavy industrial equipment. When wiring and commissioning, engineers often struggle with connectors that vibrate loose or require fiddly torque specs. It is designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations under NEC/CEC standards and carries a NEMA 1 rating. With 3/0-4/0 AWG capability and 120 VAC operation, reinforced thermoplastic housing, and brass contacts, it enables quick field terminations. This approach simplifies procurement and installation, reducing downtime and project costs for industrial automation projects.

FAQs
To install, power down the system, prepare 3/0-4/0 AWG conductors, and align them with the Cam-Lok E1012 plug leads. Insert conductors and tighten the set screws firmly to spec. Use the EB 8 Cam-Lok E1012 installation sheet for torque guidance and sequence, and verify the assembly is secure before energizing. This single packaged unit simplifies on-site handling and reduces mis-assembly risk.
The E1012-65K is rated up to 315A continuous and 550A intermittent, with a 120 VAC voltage rating. These specifications support high-current applications in automation panels, conveyors, and motor drives while maintaining reliable performance under rugged operating conditions.
Yes. The plug is approved for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, aligns with NEC/CEC standards, and carries a NEMA 1 rating. This makes it appropriate for standard industrial facilities where robust, code-compliant power connections are required without specialized enclosure protection.
Key certifications include NEC/CEC standards compliance and a NEMA 1 rating for standard enclosures. It is intended for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, aligning with common industrial electrical codes to support safe, reliable operation in typical manufacturing environments.
Benefits include a durable reinforced thermoplastic housing and brass contact terminations that resist wear and vibration, reducing replacement frequency. The single packaged unit streamlines stocking and maintenance, shortening commissioning time and minimizing downtime, which translates to lower total cost of ownership and faster project ROI in automation environments.
