Eaton Crouse-Hinds E1049X-252 Plug - Zone 2 Rated

High current rating up to 796A continuous translates into fewer connectors and shorter installation times for large motor feeders. This improves electrical efficiency by reducing junction losses and minimizing inventory complexity, especially in plants with aggressive load profiles. Ideal for mining, metal processing, and chemical facilities where motor startups are frequent and reliability matters. Voltage rating of 1000 Vac/dc provides universal compatibility for mixed power systems, simplifying panel design and maintenance. Paired with 444 kcmil conductors, it ensures a robust contact area that minimizes resistance and heating under heavy loads, supporting consistent voltage performance even during peak demand. Supports large-diameter 444 kcmil copper conductors, enabling direct, high-current connections without step-down adapters and reducing part count. Field terminations are flexible with hexagon crimp or solder methods, lowering installation time while preserving a secure, gas-tight connection. The rugged rubber housing together with Zone 2, NEC Class I/Division 2, IP54 and NEMA 3R ratings provides resistance to dust, moisture, and corrosive environments, extending service life and reducing maintenance in chemical plants, oil refineries, and similar sites. Designed to pair with Eaton Roughneck plugs and connectors, this model ensures quick mating, precise alignment, and reliable performance in tight or complex installations.
