Corrosion‑resistant construction reduces maintenance costs and extends service life in outdoor and humid environments, delivering measurable uptime improvements for harsh production lines. The locking straight blade design provides a secure connection that resists accidental disconnection under vibration, which translates to fewer equipment stoppages and safer motor starts in packaging, material handling, and processing environments. Back and side wiring support simplifies field wiring and retrofit projects, enabling faster installations with #14-10 AWG conductors while maintaining a clean, code‑compliant panel layout. The glass‑filled nylon body and nickel plated bronze contacts balance strength and conductivity, delivering reliable performance across -20 to 70 °C and in high‑cycle industrial applications. This duplex receptacle is designed for extra heavy‑duty service, reducing maintenance cycles and replacement costs in demanding facilities. CSA certification further reinforces compliance with electrical safety standards for commercial and industrial use, while the compact form factor fits control panels and power distribution hubs without sacrificing performance. Torque rating of 14 lbf‑in ensures proper retention of mating plugs and minimizes wear over time, supporting long‑term reliability in motor control centers and portable equipment using L5‑15/5‑15 configurations.

FAQs

CR5792 supports back and side wiring for #14-10 AWG conductors. Begin by disconnecting power, remove the existing receptacle, and prepare conductors with proper stripping length. Attach wires to the appropriate terminals, ensure tight connections, and torque to 14 lbf‑in for the terminals. Use the side or rear entry as needed, then mount into the panel or box, reinstall the cover, and test with a voltage source to confirm proper locking and polarity.
CR5792 is rated for 15 A at 125 V and features a NEMA configuration of L5-15 / 5-15, delivering two‑pole, three‑wire capability. This combination provides locking compatibility with range‑power plugs while maintaining standard straight‑blade functionality. It is designed for industrial environments and supports both locking and straight blade operation to enhance reliability in equipment connections.
