FAQs
To install AH5369BK, prepare wires within the 0.33-0.66 inch diameter range, insert conductors into the back-wire terminals, and tighten the screws to the specified torque of 12-14 lbf-in. Confirm proper grounding in the 5-20R receptacle, verify continuity, and inspect the plastic housing for secure seating. This reduces loose connections and downtime.
AH5369BK carries UL NOM Federal Specification Classification 6221 02 compliance, ensuring adherence to rigorous industrial safety and performance standards. This certification supports reliability in harsh environments and aligns with typical panel assembly and electrical code requirements, giving buyers confidence in long-term operation.
Yes. AH5369BK is a 20A, 125V straight blade connector configured as a two-pole, three-wire NEMA 5-20R receptacle with back-wire and screw termination. It is designed for industrial equipment wiring and control panels requiring a secure, grounding-capable connection with standard national wiring practices.
The connector uses brass contacts for reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance, housed in a nylon body with a polycarbonate outer shell. This combination provides impact resistance, improved heat tolerance, and durable mating interfaces essential for heavy-duty industrial use.
Common applications include control panels, industrial machines, and power distribution blocks that require back-wire terminations and NEMA 5-20R configurations. Its rugged construction supports ongoing maintenance in manufacturing lines, packaging equipment, and automated systems where quick, secure wiring is critical.
