Watertight IP67 protection minimizes moisture ingress in outdoor equipment and wash-down environments, reducing corrosion risk and downtime. The locking receptacle design prevents accidental unplugging in vibration-prone settings, translating into higher equipment uptime and safer starts in demanding applications. Back wiring supports faster, more straightforward installations for #14-8 AWG conductors, lowering labor costs and helping field crews meet tight commissioning schedules. The unit's glass-filled nylon face and thermoplastic body deliver rugged durability in harsh environments while maintaining lightweight handling for technicians on the shop floor. Nickel-plated bronze contacts provide reliable, low-resistance connections that resist wear from frequent mating cycles, supporting long-term performance. Compatibility with 125 V, 30 A loads and L5-30 configuration makes it ideal for outdoor motors, control panels, and rugged industrial equipment, reducing total cost of ownership through fewer maintenance intervals and easier replacement. The color-coded yellow housing enhances safety and visibility in cluttered industrial spaces, aiding quick identification during troubleshooting and upgrades. Torque specifications of 14-16 lbf-in for smaller conductors and 20 lbf-in for #8 AWG ensure consistent, code-compliant terminations in the field. This combination of features supports both OEMs and maintenance teams seeking reliable, standards-aligned power distribution solutions.

FAQs
The L530RW supports back wiring with allowable #14-8 AWG conductors. This enables straightforward field termination and faster commissioning, especially in control panels and outdoor installations where space is limited. Torque guidance is 14-16 lbf-in for #10-14 AWG and 20 lbf-in for #8 AWG to ensure reliable, code-compliant connections.
The device is rated for 30 A at 125 V, with a NEMA L5-30 configuration (two-pole, three-wire). It carries IP67 protection for watertight performance and is cULus listed, UL listed, and CSA certified, with Federal Specifications W-C375 compliance for industrial reliability.
Ideal for outdoor motors, control panels, and other harsh-environment equipment, the L530RW handles wash-down areas, dust-prone rooms, and vibration-heavy settings where secure, weather-resistant power connections are essential.
Durability comes from a glass-filled nylon face with a thermoplastic body and nickel-plated bronze contacts, delivering corrosion resistance and repeatable mating performance. The locking design reduces unplugging incidents, lowering maintenance interventions and downtime.
Back wiring accommodates common control-panel wiring schemes, with torque specs to ensure secure terminations. The IP67 rating, yellow visibility, and compliance with multiple certifications help meet industry codes and safety standards while supporting reliable, long-term operation in demanding environments.
