Eaton Crouse-Hinds E1049-28 Plug - 1135A, 1000 Vac/dc
Part Number: E1049-28
Quick Summary
Eaton Crouse-Hinds Roughneck E1049-28 plug is a high-amperage power connector designed for large feeders in industrial environments. It addresses the common challenge of reliably terminating very large conductors with fast, field-terminable options. This solution aligns with NEC/CEC standards and is rated for NEMA 3, ordinary/non-hazardous locations, making it suitable for outdoor or indoor installations. By combining rugged rubber housing with copper contacts and a hexagon crimp or solder termination, it delivers durable, code-compliant connections. For procurement teams and engineers, the E1049-28 supports safer terminations, reduced maintenance, and predictable performance across demanding facilities.
