FAQs
For installation, ensure mating with the correct Roughneck E1049-series receptacle, choose hexagon crimp or solder termination, and use copper conductors up to 535 kcmil. Verify 1000 Vac/dc rating is suitable for the system, and follow NEC/CEC guidelines and local codes. Use appropriate protective gear and perform a torque check to ensure a secure, code-compliant connection.
The E1049-50 is rated for up to 898 A continuous and supports 535 kcmil conductors, with a voltage rating of 1000 Vac/dc. This makes it suitable for high-current feeder connections, motor leads, and other demanding power distribution tasks in Roughneck installations while maintaining safe operation.
Yes. The E1049-50 uses a rubber body and copper contacts designed for durability in ordinary/non-hazardous locations, and it adheres to NEC/CEC standards with a NEMA 3 rating for protection against weather and ingress. This combination helps minimize downtime and maintenance in typical industrial settings.
The plug complies with NEC/CEC standards and carries a NEMA 3 rating, suitable for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. Its rugged construction and compliance make it appropriate for non-hazardous industrial environments where high-current connections are required, such as process lines and power distribution panels.
By enabling high-current, secure terminations with hex crimp or solder options and a durable rubber body, the E1049-50 reduces installation time and rework, lowers maintenance frequency, and improves uptime. Its compatibility with large cable sizes minimizes connector count, delivering long-term cost savings in heavy-duty industrial power distribution.
