Eaton EHMT1 Service Entrance Cap - Mast Type, Aluminum
Part Number: EHMT1
Quick Summary
Eaton EHMT1 service entrance cap provides a robust cap for Crouse-Hinds service entrance heads in industrial electrical installations. When field crews encounter misfitting caps or corrosion-prone materials, installation delays and reliability risks rise. This cap is rated for ordinary/non-hazardous locations and complies with NEC/CEC standards, with Canadian certification documentation available through official Eaton downloads. By delivering a compact, lightweight solution in aluminum die cast construction, the EHMT1 supports efficient field installs and long-term durability. The combination of mast-type design and a 1-1/4"-2" trade size makes it a practical fit for ongoing service entrance projects and spares inventories.

Eaton Specification Sheet - EHMT1
Material and construction deliver long-term reliability: aluminum die cast body provides corrosion resistance while keeping weight manageable at roughly 0.4 lb, enabling easier handling on site and reducing fatigue during installation. This translates to faster commissioning and fewer call-backs in busy distribution environments. The Mast type design aligns directly with Eaton Crouse-Hinds service entrance heads, which minimizes alignment issues and provides a secure fit in limited-space enclosures. With a 1-1/4"-2" trade size, it covers a common range for mast-mounted service entrances, enhancing compatibility across multiple panels and reducing spare-part variety in stocking programs. Certifications and compliance ensure regulatory alignment, while simple installation supports field technicians and OEMs alike. Lightweight aluminum construction also contributes to lower shipping costs and easier replacement planning for maintenance cycles. Industry-grade performance is reinforced by durable exterior protection suitable for general industrial facilities and non-hazardous locations.

FAQs
EHMT1 installs onto standard 1-1/4" to 2" mast-service entrances with the Crouse-Hinds mast-type heads. To begin, ensure a clean mounting surface, align the cap with the head’s mast, and secure using the appropriate hardware recommended by Eaton. Verify that the cap sits flush and that there is no binding when the enclosure is closed; this minimizes arcing risk and improves weather sealing in ordinary locations.
EHMT1 is listed under NEC/CEC standards and rated for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. Canadian certification references are available in the product downloads, including UL-based Canadian certification pages. Official documentation can be found via Eaton’s downloads catalog and the UL/Canada certification links provided with the EHMT1 datasheet and catalog page.
EHMT1 is specified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. It is designed for general industrial applications where corrosive or hazardous atmospheres are not present. For outdoor or hazardous environments, consult Eaton’s documentation for alternative caps that meet higher IP or SIL requirements, or consider enclosure-level protection upgrades to ensure compliance.
EHMT1 has a length/depth of 5.31 inches, a height of 3.42 inches, and a width of 5.13 inches, with a product weight of 0.4 pounds. It’s cataloged under EHMT1 and carries UPC 662277002318. These dimensions support a compact profile suitable for space-constrained panels while maintaining robust protection for the service entrance.
The Mast Type design ensures straightforward alignment with Crouse-Hinds service entrance heads, reducing installation time and torque requirements. Aluminum die cast construction provides corrosion resistance, lightweight handling, and durable service in general industrial environments. Together, they improve field reliability, lower maintenance costs, and simplify stocking of compatible components within Eaton’s ecosystem.
