FAQs
The EPC605 2042 WT200 3 Interlocked Receptacle is designed for hazardous-location electrical installations, featuring an interlocked mechanism that prevents energization until the receptacle is safely engaged. It supports a 200A circuit with a 225A frame, operates at 600 Vac/250 Vdc, and uses copper-free aluminum for longevity in harsh environments such as chemical plants, refineries, and mining sites.
Yes. The EPC605 is specified for a 200A circuit breaker with a 225A frame size and comes with an interlocked receptacle design that supports safe operation in three-wire, four-pole configurations, enabling reliable integration with standard industrial switchgear and control panels.
The EPC605 meets NEC/CEC hazardous location classifications for Class I, Division 1 and 2, Class II, Division 1 and 2, and Class III, and carries NEMA ratings 9, 12, 7, and 3. These certifications support compliance across hazardous-location installations and align with industrial safety and performance expectations.
Safety is enhanced by the interlocked mechanism that prevents energization during maintenance and startup, while the device’s hazardous-location ratings, NEMA compatibility, and UL certification reduce audit findings. Its copper-free aluminum enclosure lowers corrosion risk, helping facilities maintain compliant, reliable power distribution in challenging environments.
Refer to the installation sheets IF 1239 (IFC) and IF 1634 for EPC 200A interlocked receptacles, and follow the 18 in length, 36 in height, and 27 in width dimensions with a 3 inch trade size. Use the three-wire, four-pole configuration with the interchangeable thermal trip for serviceability and safety in hazardous areas.
