Eaton Crouse-Hinds E1012-8032 Cam-Lok F Series plug - 3R Rated
Part Number: E1012-8032
Quick Summary
The Eaton Crouse-Hinds E1012-8032 Cam-Lok F Series plug is a high-current electrical connector designed for rugged industrial power distribution. Engineers often struggle with reliable, heavy-duty connections that can safely handle 3/0–4/0 AWG conductors in demanding environments. This plug meets NEC/CEC standards and features a NEMA 3R-rated enclosure for weather resistance, suitable for ordinary/non-hazardous locations. Its compact, red, male connector uses brass contacts and a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) housing to deliver dependable performance in factory floors, outdoor sites, and service trucks. Crimp or solder termination options provide installation flexibility, while the robust design reduces downtime and supplier complexity, improving project timelines and lifecycle costs. The combination of safety, reliability, and field-install practicality supports both new builds and retrofits.
