FAQs
The E1049-37 is a male Roughneck plug designed to pair with corresponding Roughneck receptacles within the same high‑amperage family. Ensure the mate is specified for 313 kcmil conductors and a 1000 Vac/dc rating, and that termination is performed with hexagon crimp or solder as appropriate for the field. Always verify NEC/CEC compliance and proper enclosure rating for the installation.
E1049-37 provides up to 636 A continuous amperage and a voltage rating of 1000 Vac/dc. It accepts conductors up to 313 kcmil copper, enabling large feeder and motor circuit terminations with a single plug. This combination supports robust high‑power connections in industrial environments.
The E1049-37 is intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations and meets NEC/CEC standards, with a NEMA 3 rating for protection against rain and dust. Its rubber housing and copper contacts are designed for outdoor installations and damp indoor locations, delivering reliable performance in challenging plant conditions.
The E1049-37 adheres to NEC/CEC standards and carries a NEMA Rating of 3. It is suitable for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, aligning with typical industrial power distribution requirements and ensuring compliant, safe operation in non-hazardous environments.
Use the hexagon crimp or solder termination method as specified for 313 kcmil copper conductors. Prepare cables properly, select the correct crimp tooling, and follow the IF 1778 instruction sheets for Roughneck E1049 series components. Ensuring clean terminations, correct torque, and consistent materials reduces resistance, heat buildup, and maintenance needs over the motor feeder life.
