FAQs
Yes. The E1017-29 is specified to accept up to 800 kcmil conductors with a crimp connection. Ensure the correct crimp contacts and tooling per the manufacturer’s installation sheets, such as the EB 94 instruction sheet, and follow the recommended cable preparation lengths to maintain electrical integrity and environmental sealing.
The NEMA 4 rating means the plug is suitable for indoor or outdoor installations exposed to rain, windblown dust, splash, and other non-hazardous environments. It provides a weather-resistant enclosure that helps protect the brass contacts and rubber housing, reducing corrosion risk and maintaining reliable performance in non-hazardous locations.
Ideal applications include high-current motor drives, pumps, conveyors, and industrial machinery where rapid, secure mating is required and up to 690A continuous current is needed. Its rugged rubber body and brass contacts ensure durable connections in outdoor and damp locations, aligning with NEC/CEC controls and power distribution needs.
This connector adheres to NEC/CEC standards, carries a NEMA 4 rating for protection against dust and water ingress, and is intended for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. Compliance supports safer installation, easier approvals, and predictable performance in standard industrial environments.
Long-term maintenance benefits come from a durable vulcanized rubber housing and secure brass contacts that resist wear and corrosion, reducing re-termination events. The rugged construction minimizes field failures, lowers spare parts costs, and shortens downtime during maintenance windows, providing a favorable total cost of ownership in demanding industrial settings.
