Eaton Specification Sheet - EHT3
Threaded 1 inch trade size design enables secure mating with standard service entrance heads. This reduces ingress paths and moisture penetration, extending enclosure life and lowering maintenance costs. Ideal for commercial and industrial panels where quick, reliable field installation is essential. Aluminum die-cast construction offers durability with lighter weight. The material resists corrosion in humid environments and withstands frequent handling during service calls, reducing replacement expense. Suitable for indoor/outdoor electrical installations and harsh environments. Threaded closure provides high retention in vibration-prone settings. This minimizes loosening risks during equipment operation, lowering downtime. Use with service entrance heads in pumps, conveyors, and power distribution panels. NEC/CEC compliance and Ordinary/Non-Hazardous area classification simplify regulatory planning. This accelerates approvals and reduces risk of nonconformance, supporting project timelines. Broader industrial and commercial facilities requiring compliant service entrance components will benefit. 1 inch trade size aligns with Eaton’s Crouse-Hinds family and standard catalog practices. This streamlines procurement, improves part availability, and guarantees compatibility across parts. System upgrades or retrofits within existing Eaton service entrance ecosystems are simplified. Documentation and datasheets, including UL certifications, are readily accessible through Eaton resources. This speeds design reviews and QA checks, lowering project risk. Procurement, quality management, and field engineering teams benefit from quick access to technical data.
