Eaton 5669 Connector - Severe Duty 6-15R UL 6221
Part Number: 5669
Quick Summary
Eaton 5669 Connector is a severe-duty straight blade connector designed for industrial wiring. It delivers robust performance in harsh environments where reliability matters most for control panels and machinery. Engineers often struggle with corrosion, loose terminations, and incompatible wire sizes during panel upgrades, which can cause downtime. This connector combines nickel-plated brass contacts, a corrosion-resistant nylon body, and a back-wire termination to address these challenges, while UL NOM Federal Specification Classification 6221 02 adds confidence in compliance. With a 15A, 250V rating and support for #18-12 AWG in a two-pole, three-wire configuration, it streamlines installation and reduces field service time. Core-pack packaging further simplifies stocking for procurement teams and OEM engineering programs.

FAQs
To install, strip the #18-12 AWG conductors to match the back-wire terminals, insert them into the rear slots, and tighten the securing screws to create a solid connection. Ensure the wiring matches the 6-15R configuration and verify the polarity and grounding are correctly established. This method provides a fast, secure termination in industrial panels.
The 5669 is rated for 15A at 250V and accommodates #18-12 AWG conductors. It is a two-pole, three-wire receptacle with grounding, designed for industrial applications and back-wire termination. Its robust ratings support reliable operation in demanding control and power distribution scenarios.
Yes, the 5669 is designed for a 6-15R receptacle. It uses a two-pole, three-wire grounding arrangement and is intended for industrial environments, including corrosive or harsh settings. The combination of nylon body and nickel-plated brass contacts provides reliable performance in challenging conditions.
The 5669 carries UL NOM certification and Federal Specification Classification 6221 02, validating compliance with safety and performance standards for industrial wiring devices. These certifications help ensure reliability, reduce compliance risk, and support procurement in regulated environments.
Expect longer service life due to corrosion-resistant nickel-plated brass contacts and a durable nylon body, which reduces maintenance intervals. The back-wire design speeds field terminations, lowering labor costs during installation, while core-pack packaging simplifies stocking, supporting lower lifecycle costs for OEMs and maintenance teams.
