Eaton Crouse-Hinds E1049-67 Plug - 1000 Vac/dc

Up to 1009A continuous with 646 kcmil cable capability. This supports larger motor feeders and minimizes junctions, reducing maintenance and downtime. Ideal for mining, heavy manufacturing, and process plants requiring robust, high-current power distribution in harsh environments. Hexagon crimp or solder connection paired with copper contacts delivers low contact resistance and reliable electrical continuity even in high-vibration environments. The combination supports consistent torque and seal integrity, which minimizes overheated connections and electrical noise in drives and feeders. This is particularly valuable for utility-scale equipment and heavy machinery where dependable terminations impact overall equipment effectiveness. Rubber housing in brown provides durable mechanical protection and dielectric performance, while a 1000 Vac/dc rating supports versatile AC/DC use. The rubber construction helps sealing against moisture and dust, helping maintain performance in ordinary locations and less-than-ideal plant conditions. The form factor and material choice also facilitate field service with a secure, tactile grip. Compatibility and installation advantages are reinforced by the Roughneck line’s clear specifications: 8.5 in length, 3 in height, 3 in width, and a 5.5 lb weight for manageable field handling. This size profile supports organized cable management and easier mounting in control cabinets, junction boxes, and power centers. The inclusion of hex crimp or solder options gives installers flexibility to use existing tooling. Compliance and safety considerations are addressed through NEC/CEC standards, NEMA Rating 3, and Ordinary/Non-Hazardous area classification. The documented data in the E1049 specification and installation sheets simplifies code compliance checks and reduces risk during audits. Operators benefit from a durable, long-life connector that aligns with maintenance practices and helps justify lifecycle costs.
