FAQs
Yes, the E1017-379 is designed for 350-500 kcmil conductors and uses a double set screw termination. For proper torque and secure seating, use the recommended hex driver and follow the manufacturer’s clamping guidelines. Ensure conductor insulation is stripped to the correct length and that brass contacts remain clean to maintain low resistance and reliable connections.
The plug is rated up to 545A continuous and 600 Vac/dc, suitable for both AC and DC systems when mated with compatible receptacles. For DC applications, verify contact integrity and insulation performance under your operating voltage and current conditions, and ensure proper torque, cable sizing, and enclosure protection to maintain safe, reliable operation.
Industries with heavy electrical loads, such as manufacturing, mining, and bulk processing, benefit most. It’s ideal for large motors, switchgear feeders, outdoor equipment, and process lines where fast, secure disconnection is needed. The connector’s NEMA 3R protection and NEC/CEC compliance support reliable service in ordinary locations and exposed environments.
The E1017-379 carries NEC/CEC standards alignment and a NEMA 3R rating, suitable for ordinary/non-hazardous locations. This makes it appropriate for non-hazardous industrial environments, outdoor installations, and applications requiring recognized electrical code compliance and durable weather protection.
The combination of brass contacts, rubber non-vulcanized insulation, and a double set screw design minimizes resistance, wear, and arcing, extending service life. To maximize reliability, ensure correct conductor sizing (350-500 kcmil), maintain clean mating surfaces, apply proper torque, and use compatible receptacles. This reduces maintenance costs and improves uptime in demanding plants.
