FAQs

The E1016-8389K is designed for 2/0-4/0 AWG conductors, enabling high-current connections without the need for multiple adapters. The double set screw terminals provide a secure, vibration-resistant grip on the conductors, simplifying field terminations and reducing maintenance needs over the plug’s service life.
This Cam-Lok E1016-8389K plug is rated up to 400A continuous and supports 600 Vac/dc. These ratings make it suitable for high-demand power feeds to motors, drives, and other industrial equipment while maintaining a safe, code-compliant connection in non-hazardous environments.
Yes, it is intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations. It complies with NEC/CEC standards and carries a NEMA 3R rating, which supports outdoor or semi-protected installations and helps ensure protection against rain and external contaminants in many industrial settings.
Plan for direct field terminations with 2/0-4/0 AWG conductors and ensure proper torque for the double set screws. The single packaged unit design aids quick field deployment, while brass contacts improve longevity. Refer to the IM 1004 instruction sheets and Eaton’s datasheet for detailed installation steps and safety notes.
