Eaton Crouse-Hinds E1017-28 Cam-Lok plug - NEMA 4

E1017-28 is engineered for up to 690 A continuous current and accepts up to 750 kcmil cable. This capacity eliminates the need for multiple smaller connectors and reduces wiring complexity in high-load feeders, translating to lower labor costs and fewer potential failure points. It’s well suited for large motors, welding cells, and heavy power distribution panels in manufacturing, mining, or process environments where uptime matters most. Brass contacts paired with a vulcanized rubber housing provide robust electrical performance and durable wear resistance. The rubber compound offers improved moisture sealing and resilience against vibration, keeping contact resistance low over time. The blue housing also aids quick identification in crowded harnesses, reducing mis-wiring during maintenance and streamlining turnarounds in machine refurbishments. Crimp connection delivers a secure, repeatable termination with consistent contact pressure, minimizing hot spots and thermal cycling. This approach supports fast field terminations with the right tooling and reduces field rework due to loose connections. The design complements OEM assembly lines and service crews, where reliable terminations speed up commissioning and testing cycles. Compliance and enclosure protection are core advantages. The E1017-28 carries NEC/CEC standards alignment and a NEMA 4 rating, making it suitable for ordinary or non-hazardous locations and exposed environments. Its 600 Vac/dc rating enables mixed-voltage systems, while 750 kcmil cable capacity accommodates future-proofing and potential system expansion. Installation and compatibility offer tangible value. As a Cam-Lok J Series plug, it pairs with matching receptacles for rapid coupling and disconnection, reducing downtime during maintenance or reconfiguration. Brass contacts, clear schematics, and supplier datasheets facilitate efficient training and onboarding, while documented catalogs and installation sheets support field technicians in selecting, crimping, and testing with confidence.
