Feature → Business Impact → ApplicationHigh amperage rating up to 1135A continuous is the backbone for large motor and feeder connections. This translates to fewer in-field upgrades and reduced downtime, enabling reliable operation of heavy equipment in mining, water treatment, and manufacturing lines where peak loads are common.Cable size support of 777 kcmil allows a single connector to span substantial conductor gauges, cutting the number of terminations and minimizing splice points. For plant expansions or rebuilds, this means faster installation and scalable power distribution in processing facilities and data centers.Voltage rating of 1000 Vac/dc provides a generous safety margin for mixed AC/DC systems, improving protection against insulation breakdown and arc events. This supports compliance in environments with high transient voltages and mixed-voltage devices in industrial automation and control rooms.Connection type Hexagon crimp or solder offers flexible termination options in the field. This reduces installation time and supplier constraints, particularly on refurbished assets or retrofit projects where pre-crimped harnesses aren’t available.Rugged rubber housing with copper contacts delivers corrosion resistance and long service life in harsh environments, improving uptime and reducing maintenance costs for outdoor switchgear, mining sites, and remote facilities.Compact dimensions (8.5 in L, 3 in W x H) with a 5.5 lb weight support easier handling and safer installation in crowded control panels and equipment rooms, lowering risk during maintenance and replacement.
