FAQs
The E1017-381 is designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations with NEC/CEC compliance and a NEMA 3R rating. For proper installation, use the double set screw terminals to secure 350-500 kcmil conductors, verify cable cleanliness, and ensure enclosure protection meets local standards. Follow proper torque specs and verify compatibility with mating receptacles in the Cam-Lok family.
This plug accepts 350-500 kcmil cables and is rated up to 545A continuous. It is intended for high-current, fixed installations and portable setups where high current transfer and reliable contact are critical. Ensure the mating receptacle and panel are sized for the same conductor range and current rating.
Yes. The unit uses rubber non-vulcanized insulation and carries a NEMA 3R rating for outdoor protection. It is designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, providing reliable performance in wet or dusty industrial settings when used with compatible Cam-Lok components.
The E1017-381 is part of Eaton/Crouse-Hinds Cam-Lok J Series and supports standard mating configurations with compatible plug and receptacle pairs. Its double set screw connection, brass contacts, and cable range enable modular, scalable wiring in panels, switchgear, and motor control centers, reducing custom wiring and inventory needs.
Brass contacts with robust rubber insulation minimize contact resistance and wear, reducing heat buildup and downtime. The rugged design and long service life lower replacement frequency, improve uptime in high-current applications, and reduce maintenance labor costs in large facilities.
