Eaton Specification Sheet - E1017-57
Crimp connection with brass contacts ensures a secure, low-resistance path for high-current power. This reduces heat buildup and promotes electrical reliability in sudden-load applications. The E1017-57 is engineered for 500 kcmil conductors and continuous operation up to 545A, making it a strong fit for feeder connections in manufacturing lines and distribution panels. Rubber vulcanized body offers moisture resistance and rugged mechanical protection, extending service life in vibration-prone environments. The J Series Cam-Lok design enables fast mating and unmating, accelerating panel upgrades and field wiring without sacrificing safety. The bright yellow color aids visibility, helping technicians confirm correct orientation during messy installations. Compliance with NEC/CEC standards and a NEMA 4 rating translates into reliable performance in Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, with proven protection against dust and splashing water. The 600 Vac/dc voltage rating and 500 kcmil cable size supports a wide range of industrial loads, from stationary equipment to mobile power carts. This alignment with codes minimizes risk during audits, while maintaining versatile, long-life connectivity. Compatibility with cam-lok accessories and standard crimp tooling simplifies procurement and spares planning across facilities. The female contact design ensures secure mating with corresponding male plugs, reducing mis-wiring and contact misalignment in tight spaces. Field serviceability is enhanced by readily available crimps and ferrules, lowering maintenance costs and downtime. From a business perspective, high amperage capability and rugged rubber body deliver measurable uptime gains, lower replacement costs, and predictable performance in demanding environments. With a 600 Vac/dc rating, 545A continuous capability, and 500 kcmil conductor support, this connector supports scalable distribution for power-intensive equipment. In short, the E1017-57 is a durable, code-compliant interconnect that keeps critical lines energized.
