Ultra grip locking receptacle delivers a secure connection that resists vibration and accidental disconnection, directly reducing downtime and equipment rework in critical automation loops. This translates to measurable uptime gains and safer startup sequences for mid to large-scale industrial deployments, such as CNCs, PLC racks, and heavy equipment power feeds. In addition, the nylon body provides endurance in harsh environments, improving heat resistance and impact tolerance, which lowers replacement costs over the life of the installation. Back wiring capability simplifies field terminations; combined with a 30A/125/250V rating, it speeds up panel-mount wiring and step changes in power architecture while maintaining solid contact integrity. The locking mechanism and three-pole, four-wire configuration ensure consistent polarity and ground reliability in back-wired configurations, improving overall system reliability and ease of maintenance. The device is RoHS compliant and cULus listed NOM, which helps compliance teams meet regulatory and safety requirements while reducing supplier risk. Typical installations benefit from compact dimensions (4.19 in length, 2.31 in height, 2.28 in width) that fit standard enclosures and minimize panel real estate impacts, while providing an extra-heavy-duty, industrial-grade specification that supports long service life and lower lifecycle costs.

FAQs

The AHL1430C supports back wiring with four conductors, designed for three-pole, four-wire L14-30 configurations. Its nylon body and Ultra Grip locking mechanism simplify field terminations while ensuring a secure connection. This combination streamlines panel wiring, reduces labor time, and enhances reliability in industrial power feeds for automation equipment.
Yes. The AHL1430C is a three-pole, four-wire locking connector configured for L14-30 NEMA setups. It supports back-wiring with #16-8 AWG conductors and handles 30A at 125/250V, making it suitable for industrial power distribution and control panels that require a secure, reusable locking connection.
The product is RoHS Compliant and cULus Listed NOM. RoHS ensures restricted use of hazardous substances, supporting regulatory compliance in global markets. cULus NOM indicates recognized safety and performance standards, which helps meet electrical code requirements and reduces risk during installation, service, and OEM certifications.
The connector is built for industrial environments with a wide operating temperature range from -40 to 60 °C (-40 to 140 °F). The nylon housing provides durability against moisture and impact, while the locking design maintains secure connections under vibration or intermittent shocks typical in manufacturing floors and utility rooms.
By reducing lock disengagement, simplifying terminations via back wiring, and offering durable construction, the AHL1430C lowers downtime and maintenance labor. The rigid locking mechanism minimizes rework due to loose connections, while RoHS and NOM certifications reduce regulatory risk—delivering lower total cost of ownership in automated systems and serviceable, scalable installations.
