FAQs

The E1049X-65 supports hexagon crimp or solder terminations with copper contacts inside a rubber housing. It is designed for Zone 2 hazardous locations and carries NEC/IECEx/ATEX certifications, along with IP54 protection. For compatibility, pair this female plug with the corresponding Roughneck receptacle and ensure conductor size up to 646 kcmil. This flexible termination approach speeds on-site wiring and reduces splicing complexity.
The E1049X-65 is rated for up to 1009A continuous current and 1000 Vac/dc, with support for 646 kcmil conductors. It uses copper contacts and a rubber housing, and is Zone 2, NEC/CEC, and IECEx/ATEX certified. These specs enable direct high-amperage connections in heavy-use industrial systems while maintaining safety and compliance.
This Roughneck plug is well-suited for heavy power distribution in hazardous environments such as oil and gas, chemical processing, mining, and other plants with Zone 2 or Class I Division 2 classifications. Its IP54 protection and NEMA 3R compatibility support outdoor, damp, and outdoor-to-indoor transitions, helping avoid downtime during maintenance and installation in tough industrial settings.
The E1049X-65 carries Zone 2 hazardous location certification, IECEx/ATEX, and NEC/CEC standards, along with IP54 ingress protection and NEMA 3R rating. These certifications ensure compliance for global installations and streamline regulatory approvals for projects in hazardous locations.
Roughneck plugs use a rugged rubber housing and copper contacts, delivering durable, vibration-resistant connections with low resistance over time. The hex crimp or solder terminations reduce connection fatigue and loosening, lowering maintenance frequency. This translates to reduced replacement costs, fewer downtime events, and improved total cost of ownership in harsh industrial environments.
