The AH5369 is engineered as a 20A, 125V straight blade plug that accepts #16-12 AWG conductors, enabling broad compatibility with common control panel wiring while ensuring a stable, code-compliant connection. This translates to a tangible business impact: faster assembly in manufacturing lines and reduced field troubleshooting when wiring into NEMA 5-20P outlets in power-distribution enclosures. By supporting back-wire termination, installers achieve cleaner terminations with less risk of conductor loosening, improving panel reliability in high-vibration environments. The nylon body and brass contacts deliver strength and corrosion resistance, extending service intervals and lowering maintenance cost in harsh plant conditions. The two-pole, three-wire grounding configuration provides essential safety grounding, while the 0.33-0.66" cord range accommodates common cordsets used in industrial equipment. With a dedicated industrial design and screw termination, installation time is minimized, and consistency across assemblies is improved. Core packaging aids stocking and logistics, helping maintenance teams plan replacements without disruptive downtime. This connector is ideal for control panels, motor starters, and other industrial apparatus where reliability and regulatory alignment matter most.

FAQs
To install AH5369, prepare conductors within the #16-12 AWG range, strip appropriately, and insert into the back-wire terminals per the device’s wiring diagram. Tighten screws to the specified torque (12-14 lbf-in) to ensure a secure connection. Verify polarity and grounding by testing with a circuit simulator or a calibrated continuity tester before energizing the panel. This process minimizes the risk of loose terminations and improves long-term reliability in industrial cabinets.
AH5369 supports up to 20A at 125V and accepts #16-12 AWG conductors. It is designed for two-pole, three-wire configurations with grounding (NEMA 5-20P compatibility). The back-wire termination method simplifies field wiring, reduces installation time, and promotes consistent conductor seating. These ratings make it suitable for typical industrial control circuits and equipment power feeds within standard panel enclosures.
Yes. AH5369 is a two-pole plug with a grounding receptacle configuration intended for industrial use. Its grounding feature ensures proper safety pathways for fault conditions, meeting common industry practices for control and power distribution in factory environments. The product’s nylon body and brass contacts further enhance durability in areas with mechanical stresses and exposure to contaminants.
AH5369 carries UL NOM Federal Specification 6221 02 classification, reflecting compliance with established electrical safety and performance standards for industrial wiring devices. This certification supports regulatory acceptance across markets and helps ensure that installations meet recognized safety criteria, reducing the risk of non-conformance during inspections and maintenance audits.
The connector uses brass contacts and a nylon body, delivering durability and corrosion resistance suited to continuous operation in industrial environments. With screw and back-wire terminations, terminations remain secure under vibration, reducing rework and maintenance cycles. A compact form factor and core-pack packaging streamline stocking and replacements, contributing to lower inventory handling costs and faster field service responses.
