FAQs
The E1049-23 plug accepts up to 777 kcmil copper conductors rated for up to 1135A continuous. It is designed for 1000 Vac/dc systems and supports either hexagon crimp or solder terminations, enabling flexible field installation for large-diameter power feeders.
Yes. The plug carries a NEMA 3 rating and is intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, making it suitable for outdoor or damp environments typically found in plant exteriors, loading docks, and non-hazardous manufacturing areas.
The E1049-23 complies with NEC/CEC standards and carries a NEMA Rating of 3, confirming suitability for non-hazardous locations. These certifications support safe integration into regulated electrical installations and simplify compliance during audits.
Hex crimp offers quick, repeatable field termination with reliable compression, while solder provides a solid, low-resistance contact ideal for long-term service in stable installations. The E1049-23 supports both methods, enabling installers to choose based on tooling, skill, and project requirements.
The plug measures 8.5 in in length with a height and width of 2.16 in each, and weighs 5.5 lb. These dimensions help determine enclosure space, mounting clearances, and cable routing for high-current feeder connections in machine rooms or switchgear areas.
