IP66 rated protection reduces water ingress and corrosion risk, delivering longer service life and lower maintenance costs in outdoor and washdown areas. This supports enhanced equipment availability and compliance for facilities with stringent environmental requirements. NEMA configuration 6-15R and a 15A at 250V rating align with common industrial loads, ensuring compatibility with motors, drives, and control circuits while minimizing spare part complexity. Back-wire and screw termination options enable versatile wiring in tight panels, speeding field assembly and reducing installation time. The glass-filled nylon housing and nickel-plated brass contacts provide robust chemical resistance and reduced wear, contributing to lower repair frequency in food processing, chemical, or rugged manufacturing settings. Color coding in yellow enhances visibility for safety programs and zone marking, aiding quick identification during maintenance. Panel-mount design and core-pack packaging streamline stocking, quotation accuracy, and on-site deployment for panel builders and integrators.
