Eaton Crouse-Hinds EGL210 J1 J3 Grounding Indicator-NEC/CEC
Part Number: EGL210 J1 J3
Quick Summary
The EGL210 J1 J3 static grounding indicator verifies equipment grounding in hazardous industrial locations, delivering clear status signals for critical safety panels and control systems. In environments with dust, moisture, and vibration, ambiguous ground indicators can cause misreads, miswires, and outages; this unit reduces those risks through rugged construction and distinctive red-green status. It carries NEC/CEC hazardous-location certifications and broad NEMA ratings—3, 4X, 7, 9, 12—that support deployments from chemical plants to offshore platforms. With copper-free aluminum housing, a dual color pilot light, and 120 VAC operation, EGL210 J1 J3 simplifies installation, improves uptime, and aligns with UL documentation for easy compliance. This combination helps ensure safer operations, faster audits, and predictable maintenance costs across diverse hazardous-area applications.

FAQs
Install the EGL210 J1 J3 using standard panel cutouts that match its 11.07 in depth, 12.8 in height, and 8.41 in width footprint. Ensure the panel is rated for Hazardous/Classified Locations and that 120 VAC supply and grounding connections are wired per local NEC/CEC guidelines. Use the dual color pilot lights to confirm status during commissioning and routine testing.
The indicator is rated for 10A/15A at 120 VAC. It provides a visual red/green status signal and is designed to operate within standard control circuits without impeding the connected equipment. This makes it suitable for monitoring grounding on MCCs, pumps, and similar devices in hazardous environments.
Yes. EGL210 J1 J3 is specified for Hazardous/Classified Locations with NEC/CEC standards. It also carries broad NEMA ratings (3, 4X, 7, 9, 12), supporting installations in a wide range of harsh conditions found in chemical plants, refineries, and offshore facilities.
Installation sheets and a comprehensive specification catalog page are available, along with UL certification references. Accessing these documents accelerates commissioning, QA, and regulatory audits while ensuring correct wiring, mounting, and safety practices in hazardous locations.
The dual-color signaling speeds troubleshooting and reduces downtime by enabling immediate status recognition. Copper-free aluminum construction extends service life in corrosive environments, lowering maintenance costs. Combined with UL documentation and broad NEC/CEC compliance, projects benefit from faster installation, fewer reworks, and improved uptime outcomes.
