Luminaire Disconnects
Wire Termination — Sta-Kon
®
Wire Termination & Insulation
Disconnect ballasts under
load for safe servicing —
in compliance with
NEC
®
requirements.
Push-In Luminaire Disconnect
Each year, electricians sustain injuries while attempting to change ballasts
without tripping the breaker because they’re trying to avoid disconnecting
other lighting and equipment from power. That’s why recent changes to
NEC
®
and UL standards require a means of disconnecting power to non-
residential fluorescent lighting ballasts.
In 2006, Thomas & Betts developed the first UL Listed product to meet this
need. Now, in response to customer demand, the new Sta-Kon
®
Push-In
Luminaire Disconnect provides all the same safety benefits as the original,
but installs even faster and easier.
• Enables electricians changing ballasts to easily
disconnect incoming power for safe servicing
without having to trip the main power breaker
• Installs easily — just strip de-energized wires and insert
• Disconnect halves snap together and separate
easily — but won’t accidentally disconnect
• Foolproof design eliminates the potential
for incorrect installation and reverse polarity
• Fits through
1
⁄2" knockouts for easy retrofit
• Ballast hot-lead wire entry is color-coded black
for easy visibility
• Finger-safe on both sides
• For use in all non-residential fluorescent lighting
applications and in ordinary location HID lighting
applications — both up to 600V, 4A maximum
• Complies with NEC
®
, CEC, UL and CSA requirements
• Sold in mated pairs (male/line and female/load sides)

Luminaire Disconnect
