FAQs
Installing the E1049-25 involves selecting the appropriate 777 kcmil cable, preparing the conductor ends, and choosing either hexagon crimp or solder termination. For crimping, use a compatible hex crimp tool and standard crimping dies to achieve a secure, per‑system electrical connection. For solder, ensure proper heat application without damaging the rubber housing. Follow the installation sheet to prevent misalignment and ensure proper sealing, which preserves the NEMA 3 outdoor rating.
The E1049-25 is rated up to 1135 A continuous current and supports a voltage rating of 1000 Vac/dc. This combination enables reliable high‑current distribution for large motors and feeders while maintaining safe insulation and connector integrity in demanding industrial environments.
Yes. The connector supports Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations per its area classification and carries a NEMA 3 rating, making it appropriate for outdoor installations and environments where exposure to dust or moisture is possible. This helps ensure dependable operation in standard industrial settings without specialized hazardous-location compliance.
The E1049-25 adheres to NEC/CEC standards and is built for non-hazardous, ordinary locations. Its NEMA 3 rating and rugged construction align with typical industrial electrical practices, supporting safe and compliant operation in a broad range of machinery and power-distribution applications.
The plug’s copper contacts, rubber housing, and choice of hex-crimp or solder terminations offer durable, repair-friendly field connections with reduced corrosion risk. Its robust enclosure and outdoor-rated design minimize ingress-related failures, lowering downtime and maintenance costs while enabling faster replacements and standardized spares across facilities.
