Eaton Specification Sheet - E1016-8387
High-current capability up to 400A continuous supports heavier loads with fewer components, reducing wiring complexity and potential fault points. It accepts 2/0–4/0 AWG conductors, enabling longer runs with consistent performance in mining, large conveyors, and heavy machinery. Feature: Double set screw connection. Business impact: Secure grip on conductors, resisting loosening under vibration and shocks. Application: outdoor equipment, conveyors, and mobile machinery in manufacturing environments. Feature: Brass contact material. Impact: Low contact resistance improves efficiency and reduces heat during high-current operation, contributing to longer service life of power feeds and panels. Application: power distribution and motor feeder connections in demanding facilities. Feature: Thermoplastic elastomer housing (TPE). Impact: Durable, chemical-resistant enclosure that withstands oils, dust, and solvents common on factory floors. Application: harsh environments where long-term integrity matters. Feature: Cable size compatibility 2/0-4/0 AWG and compact form factor. Impact: Reduces need for adapters and simplifies sourcing across projects. Application: integration with existing Cam-Lok reels, receptacles, and distributed power systems. Feature: Certifications and compliance. Impact: NEC/CEC alignment and a NEMA 3R rating support safer, regulatorily compliant installations. Application: facilities with strict standards and outdoor or protected-enclosure needs.

FAQs
The E1016-8387 supports 2/0–4/0 AWG conductors and can carry up to 400 A continuous. It is rated for 600 V AC/DC and uses brass contacts with a double set screw in a thermoplastic elastomer housing, ensuring a secure, reliable connection in industrial power feeds.
Wire the conductors into the double set screws per the 2/0–4/0 AWG range, tighten to the appropriate torque, and ensure correct polarity. Use the black female plug with brass contacts in a clean, dry environment. Verify mating receptacle alignment and reseat after a short cycle test to confirm a vibration-resistant connection.
Yes. The E1016-8387 is designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations and carries a NEMA 3R rating, making it suitable for some outdoor or damp environments when used with appropriate enclosures and installation practices.
The plug complies with NEC/CEC standards and features a NEMA 3R enclosure rating. It is intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, providing regulatory alignment and safety assurances for industrial power connections.
The high-current capability and secure double-set-screw connection reduce downtime from failed or loose connectors, lowering maintenance costs. Durable brass contacts and a rugged TPE housing resist wear, enabling longer service intervals, fewer spare parts, and improved overall equipment availability.
