Eaton WTC1251 Service Entrance Cable Connector - Watertight
Part Number: WTC1251
Quick Summary
The Eaton WTC1251 service entrance cable connector seals 0.660–1.120 in cables for watertight service enclosures. In outdoor and harsh indoor environments, installers often struggle with rain ingress, dust, and compatibility gaps during field installations. The WTC1251 delivers NEC/CEC compliance and UL certification for service-entry fittings used in ordinary/non-hazardous locations, while its zinc die-cast body resists corrosion. Built to a rugged standard, it reduces maintenance and rework, enabling faster terminations and consistent code compliance. For procurement teams, leveraging this connector alongside other Crouse-Hinds components improves project timelines and long-term reliability in scalable industrial wiring projects.

FAQs
The WTC1251 accepts cables with a 0.660 to 1.120 inch opening and corresponds to a 1-1/4 inch trade size. This broad range enables compatibility with common service entrance conductors, reducing the need for multiple adapters and simplifying field terminations in industrial panels.
Yes. The WTC1251 is designed to NEC/CEC compliant fittings and UL-certified for watertight service entrance connectors. This alignment supports code compliance during inspections and procurement, particularly for ordinary and non-hazardous locations in commercial and industrial facilities.
Absolutely. The connector is intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations and offers watertight performance suitable for outdoor enclosures and weather-exposed installations, helping protect terminations from moisture ingress while meeting relevant standards.
Ensure proper cable opening alignment within the 0.660–1.120 in range, tighten mounting hardware per product specs, and use compatible Crouse-Hinds series components for a continuous seal. Proper enclosure gasket integrity and clean installation surfaces also reduce ingress risk and extend service life.
The durable zinc die-cast construction combined with watertight sealing reduces rework, minimizes corrosion-related failures, and improves uptime. These factors translate to lower maintenance labor, fewer outages, and a faster return on investment in durable outdoor or wash-down environments.
