FAQs
The E1017-356 is designed to mate with Cam-Lok J Series receptacles and other compatible Cam-Lok plugs within the same series. Ensure a proper fit by using the matching J-series receptacle, and verify the mating parts support 350-500 kcmil conductors and a double-set-screw termination for secure, vibration-resistant connections.
The E1017-356 is rated for up to 545A continuous current and supports a voltage rating of 600 Vac/dc. This combination enables reliable high-current performance for large feeders and mixed AC/DC systems in industrial applications while maintaining a compact plug design.
Yes. The part carries a NEMA 3R enclosure rating and an area classification of Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, making it appropriate for typical plant floors, outdoor enclosures, and non-hazardous environments where robust environmental tolerance is needed.
The E1017-356 complies with NEC/CEC standards for electrical installations and provides NEMA 3R-rated protection. These certifications support code compliance and reliable operation in ordinary, non-hazardous locations commonly found in industrial facilities.
Use the double-set-screw termination with brass contacts to ensure a secure connection and minimize loosening due to vibration. Mating only with compatible J-series receptacles, selecting 350-500 kcmil conductors, and following torque guidelines reduce maintenance, downtime, and warranty costs while improving system reliability and lifecycle ROI.
