Eaton AH5369Y Connector - UL/NOM 6221 Qualified, 20A 125V
Part Number: AH5369Y
Quick Summary
Eaton AH5369Y is a quick grip straight blade connector for industrial power wiring. Installers often face back-wire terminations that loosen under vibration and prolong commissioning, causing costly downtime. This model carries UL, NOM and Federal Specification 6221-02 compliance to support safe, interchangeable deployments in mixed-panel environments. Designed for #16-12 AWG wiring and 125V at 20A, it features brass contacts and a durable nylon body with a polycarbonate face for long-term reliability. Its back-wire design simplifies field assembly, while the yellow housing provides quick identification in crowded gear racks. When paired with compatible Arrow Hart components, AH5369Y delivers faster installation and lower maintenance costs across control panels and industrial equipment.

Feature → Business Impact → Application: The AH5369Y uses brass contact material for superior conductivity and a solid electrical path, reducing contact resistance and heat buildup, which translates to improved system efficiency in continuous duty applications. This enhances reliability in motors, controls, and power distribution blocks, especially where temperature fluctuations are common. Feature → Back-wire termination enables faster wiring and cleaner terminations, reducing field labor time by a measurable margin and lowering commissioning risk on busy shop floors. Application: Ideal for industrial control panels and equipment racks where installers need quick, dependable connections that stay tight under vibration. Feature → 0.33-0.66 inch cord range with #16-12 AWG compatibility supports common field wiring bundles; business impact is reduced wiring rework and standardized installs across multiple SKUs. Application: Equipment wiring in conveyors, panel boards, and machine basements where cord flexibility and secure grip matter. Feature → NEMA 5-20R two-pole, three-wire grounding configuration provides a ready-made safety path; impact is up-front compliance with safety codes and less rework for grounding during retrofits. Application: Power receptacle integration in industrial machines and power distribution frames. Feature → Polycarbonate housing with nylon body yields robust impact resistance and long service life; business value is lower replacement costs and higher uptime in harsh environments. Application: Environments with exposure to mechanical abuse or frequent handling, such as assembly lines and outdoor enclosures. Feature → Torque rating of 12-14 lbf-in ensures correct screw tightness; impact is consistent termination performance and reduced loosenings in high-vibration settings. Application: Maintenance routines and field repairs where torque-controlled installations are required. Feature → Color coding in yellow aids quick identification; business benefit is faster troubleshooting and reduced mis-wiring in complex panels. Application: Large electrical bays and cabinets with mixed components where visibility speeds fault finding.

FAQs
AH5369Y supports #16-12 AWG wires with a back-wire termination method. This range covers common field wiring for 20A, 125V circuits, allowing simple, secure terminations while reducing the risk of loose connections in vibration-prone environments.
AH5369Y is a two-pole, three-wire, grounding straight blade connector configured as a NEMA 5-20R receptacle. This arrangement provides a reliable hot, neutral, and grounding path suitable for industrial equipment power interfaces.
AH5369Y carries UL and NOM certifications along with Federal Specification 6221-02 classification. These credentials ensure safety, reliability, and interchangeability with other components in mixed-panel installations, simplifying compliance during audits and retrofits.
Yes. The design uses brass contacts and a nylon body with a polycarbonate housing, plus a specified torque rating of 12-14 lbf-in for secure screw terminations. These features minimize loosening under vibration, improving uptime in industrial controls and machinery.
AH5369Y integrates back-wire connections for rapid wiring, a single two-pole configuration for straightforward assemblies, and a bright yellow housing for quick identification. These aspects reduce batch-time on assembly lines, lower error rates, and support faster commissioning in new or retrofit projects.
