Eaton NCGS413 Solar Cord Grip - IP68 Protection

NCGS413 combines a 1-1/4 inch trade size nylon cord grip with a thirteen-hole entry, accepting 5 mm cables and USE-2 conductors. This provides broad compatibility and streamlined routing, reducing the time spent selecting fittings and rework caused by mismatched cable diameters. In solar installations, that translates to faster box penetrations and fewer field errors during wiring. IP68 ingress protection delivers reliable sealing against water and dust in exposed outdoor environments. For assemblies on PV arrays, this specification reduces field failure risk and supports long service intervals, translating into lower maintenance costs and higher system availability. The nylon body resists chemicals and UV exposure, helping it endure harsh sites without cracking or losing grip. Thirteen cable-entry holes support multiple conductors and neat organization; paired with a 5 mm hole diameter, it accommodates up to #12 or #10 AWG USE-2 conductors. This simplifies parallel conductor runs in control cabinets and weatherproof enclosures, while the robust retention reduces strain on individual wires, improving years-long reliability. NEC/CEC compliance and Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations classification assure users that the NCGS413 meets common regulatory requirements for outdoor electrical equipment. Field teams can document code-compliant installations without hunting for additional adapters or certifications. The 1-1/4\" trade size also aligns with standard enclosure ports and grommets, enabling smoother retrofits and future expansion. From an installation perspective, the nylon construction yields lighter weight without sacrificing durability, and the 13-hole pattern gives technicians flexibility in laying out conductors. In practice, technicians report faster whip-assembly times and reduced inventory quantity since a single grip covers multiple conductor configurations.
