Eaton AH5100C7W Pin & Sleeve Connector - IP69K
Part Number: AH5100C7W
Quick Summary
AH5100C7W is a pin-and-sleeve connector for industrial power wiring in harsh environments. Operators and maintenance teams frequently contend with washdown, moisture ingress, and difficult field terminations. With IP69K and IP67 protections and cRUus certification, it stands up to high-pressure cleaning while meeting global safety standards. The nylon body, nickel-plated brass contacts, and back-wire termination streamline installation and improve connection reliability, reducing maintenance costs. Designed for 100A, three-phase power at 277/480V, it accepts #4–1/0 AWG conductors (pilot #12–16 AWG) and supports four-pole, five-wire configurations for robust industrial circuits.

IP69K/IP67 protection reduces downtime in washdown environments and supports compliance with strict cleanliness standards, delivering reliable, long-term operation in food & beverage and wastewater facilities. This rugged rating translates to fewer seal failures and lower maintenance costs across shift changes and scheduled plant sanitation. Amperage of 100A and voltage rating of 277/480V enable compatibility with common industrial motors up to 20 hp, supporting efficient motor control and reducing panel space requirements in compact installations. The nylon housing with nickel-plated brass contacts provides chemical resistance and corrosion protection, promoting durable power connections even in challenging environments and offering lower replacement costs over the product lifecycle. Back-wire termination simplifies field wiring, accelerates installation, and minimizes termination errors, improving overall project timelines. With four-pole, five-wire configuration and grounding included, engineers gain flexibility to design robust power distributions for three-phase systems.

FAQs
The AH5100C7W uses back-wire termination, which simplifies field wiring and reduces installation time. It is a four-pole, three-phase connector designed for up to 100A at 277/480V and accepts power conductors from #4 to 1/0 AWG, plus pilot wires #12–16 AWG. While it is built around Eaton’s pin-and-sleeve IEC 60309-style concept, ensure your panel is designed for four-pole, five-wire configurations and verify clearances for nylon housing and nickel-plated brass contacts during panel integration.
Key specs include a 100A amperage rating, 277/480V voltage rating, three-phase power, and four poles with five-wire capability. The connector supports #4–1/0 AWG conductors (pilot #12–16 AWG) and provides up to 20 horsepower protection. The torque rating is 70 in-lbf, and the device uses a nylon face/body with nickel-plated brass contacts, offering robust performance in demanding industrial settings.
Yes. The AH5100C7W features IP69K and IP67 environmental ratings, making it suitable for washdown and moisture-exposed applications typical in food & beverage facilities and wastewater treatment. Its red nylon housing and cRUus certification support safe operation in regulated environments, while the back-wire design and rugged construction help withstand frequent sanitation cycles and chemical exposure.
Primary considerations include IP69K and IP67 environmental protection ratings for high-pressure washdown resilience, and cRUus listings indicating North American electrical safety compliance. While CE or SIL certifications are not listed for this model, the combination of IP ratings and cRUus ensures robust performance in industrial settings and aligns with common regulatory expectations for washdown environments.
The connector’s nylon body and nickel-plated brass contacts resist corrosion, reducing replacement intervals and maintenance costs. Back-wire termination speeds installation, decreasing labor time and downtime during commissioning. With 100A capacity and 277/480V compatibility, the AH5100C7W supports efficient motor drives and power distribution, contributing to lower energy losses and improved uptime in process facilities.
