Series Pin and Sleeve Plugs, Connectors and Receptacles
NEC/CEC:
Listed for Ordinary (Unclassied) Locations
NEMA 3, 3R, 4, 4X
Applications
•   Designed to supply power to portable or xed electrical 
equipment such as motor generator units, welders, pumps, 
compressors, cellular relay stations, and similar apparatus.
•   Ideal for use on shipping docks, ports, and other 
”ship to shore” applications.
•   Suitable for use in locations where a weatherproof enclosure 
is required.
•   Rough usage construction.
Features
•   Available in 30, 60, 100, 150, 200, and 400 Amp units.
•   Available in two grounding styles: Style 1 (shell only) and
Style 2 (shell and extra pole).
•   Neoprene bushing compressed by cable collar prevents 
entrance of water. Bushing is highly resistant to hydrocarbon 
deterioration and is self-extinguishing.
•   Locking screw and slot prevents plug cable collar from 
”backing off.”
•  Contacts exert constant pressure along entire contact surface 
and provide electrical continuity.
•  Ambient temperature range of -25°C to +40°C 
(-13°F to +104°F).
•  Insulating blocks provide greatest dielectric and mechanical 
strength and lowest arc tracking.
•  Positive polarization: only plugs and receptacles of same style, 
number of poles and ampere rating can be used together.
•  Circuit breaking: in 30, 60, 100, 150 and 200 Amp units, any 
arcing created as line and load terminals disengage is safely 
conned deep within terminal cavities. Plugs may be withdrawn 
in an emergency under full rated loads without separate 
disconnect switches (400 Amp plug is for disconnecting use 
only; not for current rupturing).
•  30, 60, 100, and 150 Amp Powertite™ plugs also suitable for 
classied locations when used with Appleton EBR, EBRH, JBR, 
MD2SR, or DBR explosionproof interlocking receptacles.
•  Controlled length contacts ensure that ground makes rst and 
breaks last for added safety.
•  Intermatability : Intermateable with Crouse-Hinds  Arktite
®
and Powermate™, and Killark  Versamate
®
.
