Yes, the catalog number for the replacement ball stop for the weatherproof reels is HBLWPBS. The catalog number for the industrial reels replacement ball stop is HBL12BS.

Yes; we offer one reel with 45 feet of 12/3, HBL45123 and another reel with 50 feet of 16/3, HBL50163. The weatherproof HBL501xxxW series, also come without ends,

Yes, on our series of weatherproof cord reels (ie; HBL501232W) the ratchet mechanism can be disengaged in the field for constant tension. The reels are shipped with instructions on how to do it.

Adjusting the tension on our weatherproof and industrial cords can be done by adding wraps (increasing tension) or removing raps (decreasing tension) from the spool. Please exercise extreme caution because too much tension could cause injury or damage the spring. The reels are shipped with instructions on how to do it.

No. NEMA KS-1 would be a UL98-type Enclosed Switch (colloquially a "Safety Switch"). Ours is a UL508 Manual Motor Controller. However, it is "Also Suitable as A Disconnect" which means that per NEC® 430.109(A)(6), it's equivalent on a motor branch circuit. (Can't be used on a feeder circuit, however.)

DIN Rail Utility Boxes are limited to a (U.S.) voltage of 120 volts, it is not required that these products carry the CE Mark. Also, due to these products being a component only within a control panel they do not require the CE Mark as well as found in the European Low Voltage Directive. The DIN Rail Utility Box product line from Hubbell would be a part or component within a control or power panel that would itself require the CE Mark as an entire system. Especially when shipped or sold over seas.

All of our DIN Rail Utility Boxes are UL Recognized (backwards-R-U) and CSA Component Accepted (CSA-with-black-triangle) as COMPONENTS under UL508A (Industrial Control Panels) and CSA C22.2 No. 14. As for any RECOGNIZED COMPONENTS WITH CONDITIONS OF ACCEPTABILITY, it is incumbent upon manufacturers of UL LISTED and CSA CERTIFIED industrial control panels that their certification reports permit any given recognized component or type of recognized components (i.e., whether it's a recognized Hubbell DIN Rail Utility Box-series, a recognized meter, a recognized disconnect switch, etc.).

We do not sell the red handles but we do have the whole replacement covers (assembly of red handle, cover, cam and gasket). The catalog number for the 30A- HBLDS3RC, 60A- HBLDS6RC, 100A- HBLDS10RC.

No, our 3R motor controller disconnects be can only be locked in the off positions.

At this time we do not offer enclosures for our 40A, 50A and 85A manual motor controllers. These controllers are primarily used by OEMs who panel mount them into their products.

No, no one does. The 1 FRPT per 65 square feet is a UL spacing restriction. UL requires a two FRPTs have a minimum distance of 2 feet on center and not more than one unit per 65 square feet of floor area in each span.

The city of Chicago does not approve FRPT's anymore. With new UL514, Chicago has UL do it. The FRPT has to have a Plenum Rating Acceptable for use in environment air handling spaces per NEC® article 300.22(C).

The "T" Rating of a UL Fire Classification would be the 1, 1-1/2, 2, 3 or 4 hour fire rating.

No. Our FRPT pedestals; FR280, FR480, FR680 and FR80AL series, are UL listed to be used only with our thru floor fittings. PT27A and/or PT7XC. We offer a line of Furniture Connectivity Boxes for table top applications. Contact Technical Service for product information.

ITT Industries category 5e jack with the same overall size will work with old the 4X4 FRPT. Their catalog number is UDWSK8O83O2B1. Their category 6 jack that is the same size is 196000-6400.

There is no counter boring required for PT2X2 or PT7FSD series FRPT's. For the SystemOne FRPT it is called out on the installation instructions as to core drill or cut a 5.75" diameter hole x 1/8" deep concentric to the 4" diameter cored hole.

The maximum rating would be determined by the maximum rating of the installed device and building wiring (THHN) of 600V.

Our SystemOne FRPTs are listed UL listed and "approved for use in air handling spaces in accordance with NEC 300.22 (c)". For Chicago applications, a UL listed FRPT is acceptable.

A three inch core drill is to be used for a 3" FRPT, a four inch core drill is to be used for a 4" FRPT.

No. FRPTs are UL listed to be installed in concrete floors that have access underneath.

The standard 4X4 Fire-Rated Poke-Through may be installed as an “Isolated Ground” device. The four-outlet receptacle used is inherently isolated ground; there is no metallic mounting strap on the receptacle and only a single ground lead connected to all four outlets. The grounding connection is to be made in the junction box. Typically the receptacle grounding lead is pigtailed and connected to a grounding screw on the junction box as well as the grounding wire from the ground bus at the service entrance. In order to connect as an “Isolated Ground” a separate insulated equipment grounding wire must be installed from the ground bus at the service entrance and connected to the receptacle grounding lead. An additional equipment grounding wire must be attached separately to the junction box. All Local Codes and National Electrical Codes must be followed.

UL requires a two FRPTs have a minimum distance of 2 feet on center and not more than one unit per 65 square feet of floor area in each span.

Use the following equation to figure out the line of sight for the ATU2000C when used in a hallway application Width x Height = X , 3200 / X = Line of Sight, Line of Sight x 2 = Total Sight Of ATU2000C

Yes, contact Technical Service for information.

Yes, the AARs (add-a-relay) and control units are plenum rated.

No and Yes. We do not have a motion switch that is wired like a conventional 3-way switch. You use two standard line voltage motion switches. You wire the line and load to each motion switch. The first switch to see motion will turn the load on, the last switch to see motion will shut it off. You can't exceed the rating of one switch.

This occurs when there is too much inrush current on the circuit. This may be caused by; to many multiple CFL lights on the circuit, how far the circuit is away from the main feed, how much resistance is on the wire, etc. You could try is to split up the circuit evenly with 2 control units to distribute the load more evenly.

We have a five year limited warranty on the Occupancy Sensor product line.

Yes, they are compatible with all ballasts but, program start ballasts are recommended for lamp longevity.

Install it and forget it. Adaptive technology sensors automatically adjust for sensitivity and time. It takes about 3-5 days of use for the sensors to learn the environment.

Environmental conditions constantly change; climate control systems turn on and off, background temperatures change with the seasons, and office furniture density and layout change over time. For proper operation, the sensor should be adjusted each time one of these changes occur. Adaptive Technology eliminates the ongoing maintenance required to have sensors operate reliably in the changing office environment.

The Adaptive Technology chip; a small internal microprocessor that combines digital signal processing, control logic and adaptive algorithms (formulas).

Units have been in production since 1997 and reliability has been excellent.

Infrared sensors are more immune to false-turn ons, but lack sensitivity to small motions. Ultrasonic sensors are noted for their sensitivity to small motions but can be susceptible to air currents from climate control systems which can cause false-ons, typically at night. By combining the two sensing technologies, both can be used at their strengths; infrared to keep the lights off when unoccupied, ultrasonic to keep the lights on when the room is occupied. Also, ultrasonic is more sensitive to approaching motions, while infrared is more sensitive to lateral motions. Combining the two provides better detection in all directions.

The Adaptive Technology sensors will exit the test mode automatically after 1 hour.

For the adaptive wall switches, AD-, AP-, & AU1277xx press and hold front press switch till lights turn off and come back on, then release button. The sensor is now set to a 10 second test time delay. For Adaptive Technology low voltage ceiling, turn the time delay knob (the black knob located behind the lens retainer) fully clockwise, then fully counterclockwise. The sensor is now set to a 8 second time delay.

Yes. Activity spikes from air currents are continually analyzed and evaluated. The sensor automatically adjusts it's turn on threshold to prevent spikes from turning on the lights. If, during the occurrence of air conditioning spikes, occupancy occurs, the sensor recognizes the difference between the two sources and turns the lights on.

Adaptive Technology wall switches and ceiling sensors consider false-off as a major sensor performance error. The wall switch will increase the time delay to eliminate future false-offs. The ceiling sensors will increase both the time delay and the ultrasonic sensitivity by 6%.

Typically, two or three minutes. Lights are on during this time.

Adaptive Technology Wall Switches; 15 minutes (intial setting). Adaptive Technology Low Voltage Ceiling & Wall Sensors; 8 minutes (intial setting).

A false-on is when the lights turn on when there are no occupants in the intended area of coverage. False-ons typically occur when the sensor detects a hallway passerby and turns the lights on. The lights then stay on for an entire timer cycle.

Choosing the correct technology sensor, with the correct coverage pattern, and placing/aiming it correctly will inherently reduce false-ons. Adaptive Technology and PIR lens masking, would also help.

If a minor motion signal is received and no major motion signal is seen within 5 seconds (passerby but no room entry, typically) the sensitivity of the dominant technology (the technology which sensed the passerby first) is reduced by 6%.

No manufacture can guarantee that their sensor will fail to an "on" state. There are too many variables and potential failure scenarios to guarantee that a product will fail with the lights on.

The power levels and transducer style (piezoelectric) we use have no known issues with pace makers. The only precautions we’ve found regarding pacemakers and ultrasonic is for ultrasound imaging machines or certain ultrasonic dental equipment. Both use higher power transmitters and are operated in close proximity to the body.

There are four main technologies that interactive whiteboards use for marker tracking; IR scan, ultrasonic, resistive touch and electromagnetic touch. The only technology that will have interference issues is ultrasonic sensing. Ultrasonic sensing boards are predominantly made by mimio, Panasonic, and Hitachi. The market share for ultrasonic boards is small. The most common whiteboard technology used today is electromagnetic sensing and this has no interference issues with ultrasonic sensing. This is what market leaders SMART and Promethean use.

There should be no issue with most modern hearing aids. Previous issues in the 80s-90s resulted from improper hearing aid designs. A NEMA-sponsored study, conducted by David F. Henry, PhD and Barak Dar, “Effects of Ultrasonic Sensors on Hearing Aids” (February 2006), concluded: “After assessing 23 hearing aids representing the digital products of all major hearing aid manufacturers, just two hearing instruments were severely affected by ultrasonic occupancy sensor devices. One device, the ImpaCt DSR675 manufactured by AVR Son ovation, has not been in production for over four years. Newer hearing instruments from this manufacturer have exhibited no interference when exposed to the ultrasonic occupancy sensor signals. The second device, the Bravo, manufactured by Wide, is still in production. However, the manufacturer reports that they have developed a modification that can be made to the instrument that greatly reduces the susceptibility of the instrument to ultrasonic occupancy sensor signals.”

All Adaptive technology line voltage sensors (ceiling and wall switch), control units and add-a relays employ "zero arc point " switching, with the exception of the "incandescent only" residential wall switch sensors (RMS100xx, RMS101xx, RMS120xx, RMS121xx).

No, neither infrared nor ultrasonic technologies can "see" motion through glass walls or windows.

No, just the values change in the sensor's microprocessor.

They are factory set and represent the starting point for the sensor to adapt from. The knobs still exist so that the sensor can be manually set up for customer specific applications. When the application requires a non-adaptive sensor, dip switches are provided to override the adaptive feature. (Refer to sensor installation instructions for details.)

Yes. Toggle dip switch A4 to on for two seconds, then back to off. The learning process starts all over again.

Yes. Set the dip switch A2 to High Sensitivity (ON), B4 to Manual Sensitivity (ON) and set the green knob to zero. The dual tech is now a PIR sensor only. Same can be done for ultrasonic only operation.

This is done to maximize performance in smaller spaces like private offices and conference rooms. The 180° coverage allows you to position the sensor close to the entry while eliminating false-ons from hallway traffic.

It is recommended to not exceed 250 feet from the control unit to the farthest sensor, using 18-22 AWG wire.

Yes, toggle dip switch number 8 (top dip switch) from off to on, wait two seconds, then toggle back to the off position. This will restore the original factory settings.

Yes but, the lens coverage is designed to correspond with most high bay fixtures. It is highly recommended to install one sensor per fixture to maximize coverage and savings because only lights with activity below them will be lit.

Yes, you can use the low voltage version of the Optimizer with our CU300A control unit, or use the ATB120HB with the same CU300A.

When using the RU200 with a JLOAD (and partition), the cubic inch capacity available on the power side would be 13.5 cubic inch. According to NEC Table 370-16(b), the maximum allowable amount of conductors would be 6 - #14 or #12. When using the RF500 (or presumably the RJ600) with a JLOAD (and partition) the cubic inch available on the power side would be 7.75, allowing you to use up to 3 - #14 or #12 conductors.

At this time we do not sell residential grade duplex receptacles or switches that will accept both copper and aluminum wire.

Don't cut my truktrack!

A standard utility knife can be used to cut our FloorTrak.

We sell double sided tape in two sizes. FTT1 is 1" wide and FTT2 is 2" wide.

The HCT25345K is 5 feet of CableTrack kits with brackets. At the point of pivot of each link, there is a spring loaded detent on each side. You depress the detent and the links will separate. To get a total length of 10 feet you should order 10 of the CableTrack kits without brackets, in this case you should use HCT253451. All you need to do is snap all the lengths together to make up the 10 feet. You can attached the one footers within any point of the 5 foot kit length.

You will have to use one of our adapter rings to connect the two plugs. To connect 2 to 6 pole the HMQAR1 is to be used. 7 to 8 pole use the HMQAR2. 8 to 12 pole use the HMQAR3.

Our standard tin coated bronze support grips are listed in our catalog, IE: 02202013. In our catalog we have a note to indicate which Kellems support grips are available in stainless steel. You change the third number in the catalog number from a 2 to a 4, IE: 02402013. Consult Technical Service for availability.

302/304 stainless may have magnetic properties. The product is made to be corrosion resistant, which 302/304 stainless steel exhibits. At this time we along with our competitors manufacture support grips utilizing 302/304 stainless.

No. You will need to choose one of our galvanized steel pulling grips. Our grips can be used in salt water, but we recommend that they be washed and dried after every saltwater exposure.

Our grips are only approved for use with wire or cable.

Most of the hose containment grips are made to order. Contact Technical Service for product information. They could provide a catalog number if you know the hose diameter and type of eye that is needed.

Strain relief's are available in three different types of mounting threads: NPT, PG and Metric. NPT (National Pipe Thread) is the American standard. PG (Panzer Gewinde) and M (Metric) are European standards. PG threading is sometimes referred to as metric threading; however, these threads are not truly metric. The newer metric system (M) of threading is replacing PG as the standard.

Our published breaking strengths are determined using brand new grips under laboratory conditions, uniform loading, and metal banding on metal rods. The actual breaking strengths may vary by as much as 20 percent from the published values. We recommend a safety factor of 10 for support grips as there are many unknown variables including age, corrosion, loading conditions, type of cable being supported, lack of supervision or inspection after the install, etc. We normally recommend a lower safety factor of 5 for pulling grips because they are not permanently installed, they are used more like a tool under constant supervision. We recommend that all the products to be inspected for damage or wear before and after each use.

The Deluxe Cord Grips are not electrical equipment operating at a voltage of 50 to 1000V AC in accordance with Article 1 of the Low Voltage Directive (73/23/EEC) in accordance with the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (89/336/EEC). Consequently the CE Mark is not required.

No. Conduit riser support grips can only be used in standard electrical rigid metal conduit and schedule 40 rigid PVC conduit. They can not be used in tubing.

Either machined aluminum or stainless will work best. Practical difference between these two materials regarding resistance to corrosion from hydraulic oil is negligible. Yes, Neoprene would be the weak link.

Our cord connectors are UL Listed for flexible cords. They are not UL-Listed to or for any certain specific type of cord. If the flexible cord fits within the diameter range of the cord connector, then it can be used with our connector. Whether the complete wiring system is UL Listed or not will depend on if the specific cord is also UL Listed. Our cord connectors are UL Listed to UL514B (Conduit, Tubing and Cable Fittings); flexible cords are UL Listed to UL62 (Flexible Cords and Cables).

Our Deluxe Cord Grips are UL Listed and CSA Certified to the tri-national standard for Conduit Tubing and Cable Fittings [UL514B / CSA C22.2 No.18.3 / NMX-J-017-ANCE].They are approved for use with a cord connected pendant box in accordance with article 314.23(H)(1) of the National Electrical Code®.

To find the approximate equivalent diameter of a multi-cable bundle measure the circumference of the bundle and divide by 3.14.

Our Kellems Wire Management Products cord grips do not have any DNV certification.

For most wire pulls in conduit our underground pulling grips will do the job. If you are have a difficult time picking out a grip, give technical service a call for a recommendation.

We offer a feed tube which makes it easy to install a synthetic rope into our DUA-PULL® pulling grips. Search for catalog number 091061043 in our online catalog to get to the product offering.

Our I-Grips can only be used on our Insulgrip plugs and connectors without weatherproof boots because the eye tabs of the grip fits under the nylon cord clamps and the screws slide through the eyelets, securing the grip into place.

We do not manufacture marine power pedestals anymore. We recommend you contact International Dock Products, they use Hubbell products in their pedestals. www.dockproducts.com/default.asp

We do not sell a box but we do have an adapter plate, HBL60CM75. With the HBL60CM75 you can mount our HBL303SS on a single gang weatherproof deep box.

The YQ230 looks for two 125V circuits on different phases. If anything is wrong such as similar phases or open hot and/or neutral conductors it will not supply power to the 50A connector.

No. We used to sell the replacement interiors, but due to lack of sales we discontinued selling them. You will need to purchase the whole product.

The Insulgrip Pin and Sleeve Devices are "UL50 and CSA-C22.2 No. 94 Enclosure Types 3, 4 and 4X"

You can use LPS1 (greaseless non-conductive lubricant).

60 degree C rated conductors would apply in this case since the device is not marked otherwise.

Per IEC 60309-1, 32A plugs are tested to 100 Newton's cable pull out.

Yes. We sell just the locking rings for our IEC Pin & Sleeve plugs and inlets. 16A & 20A, 3 wire- LR320. 16A & 20A, 4 wire- LR420. 16A & 20A, 5 wire- LR520. 30A & 32A, 3 & 4 wire- LR3430. 30A & 32A, 5 wire- LR530. 60A & 63A, 3, 4 & 5 wire- LR60. 100A & 125A, 3, 4 & 5 wire- LR100.

Surge receptacles work across lines, not line and load like GFCI receptacles. Parallel wire the Surge receptacle with pig-tails so it's the first device in the circuit. Wire the standard receptacles downstream not to exceed more than 20 feet away and with-in the same room. Always remember, the best protection will be point-of-use protection.

Single Pole Device Connectors can not be used with motor loads, they do not have UL or CSA horse power ratings.

The maximum rating of the Single Pole Devices is 600VAC/ 250VDC for either 300 or 400 Amps at 60Hz frequency.

The Single Pole Devices are not UL listed for welding cable. They are list for Type SC, SCE, SCT, PPC and Type W, PPE cable type only.

The Single Pole plug and connectors are UL listed for Type SC, SCE, SCT, PPC and Type W, PPE cable.

Our Single Pole plug and connectors are not designed to be used with DLO (UL RHH/RHW-2) cable. We do not have listing for use with this cable so the customer is doing it at their own risk. Single pole devices are listed to be used with 90 Degree C. Power cable types SC, SCE, SCT, PPE, PPC or W [.460"(11.7mm) - 1.020"(25.99mm)].

The SNAPConnect pigtailed terminal on it's own, does not have any effective box fill, according to NEC®2008 314.16(B)(1), since it doesn't originate outside and/or passes through the device box and has leads that are 6 inches long and would not be considered a loop or coil. When installed with the matching receptacle, the assembly (receptacle with the pigtailed terminal) will have a double volume allowance in accordance with Table 314.16(B) for each SNAPConnect receptacle in the device box. Now, assuming that you are feeding the device box with #12 AWG conductors, then your volume allowance for each SNAPConnect receptacle with pigtail would require 4.5 cu. in. (2 times 2.25 cu. in. for #12 AWG).

The answer is no. The position is a matter of choice or local code enforcement. If the receptacle is mounted vertically, a growing number of users prefer to locate the ground up, and if mounted horizontally, the ground slot is oriented to the left. The rationale is that a metallic object falling on a partially inserted plug will be more likely to contact the ground blade of a 3-wire plug rather than the hot blade. If mounted horizontally, the falling object would contact either the neutral and/or ground blades.

Yes, NEMA WD6 is the configuration standard for straight blade and locking devices. The old designation for devices was, Straight Blade- WD1 and Locking- WD5. Both have now been grouped together into WD6. WD1 is now a color standard.

Yes, they were but the CS1200 series switches are now Hubbell-Pro Heavy Duty Industrial Series switches and the CR5252/CR5262 series receptacles are now Hubbell-Pro Heavy Duty Specification Grade Duplex receptacles. The switches have always been Fed. Spec. WS896. The receptacles are listed to WC596.

A sample enclosure is mounted in it's intended manner. The enclosure, including external operating mechanism, is subjected to a stream of water from the hose having 1 inch nozzle delivering 65 gallons of water per minute. The water is directed at the joints of the enclosure from a distance of 12-10 ft and the water stream was moved along the joints or surface at the rate of 48 square feet The duration of the test is 5 minutes.

ANSI/NEMA WD 6-2002 (and all earlier editions) indicates on Page iv in its Introduction notes:"9. Configurations utilized on alternating current systems are limited to 50 or 60 Hertz, unless otherwise specified."

It's the edition designation for any given Federal Specification. When a new edition is issued by the US Department of Defense, prior editions are rendered null and void. The latest edition of the general specification for plugs, receptacles and connectors is WC596G and for switches is WS896F.

The number 231A was molded on most Twist-Locks plugs and connector bodies. It is a UL Listing number, not a catalog number.

The CSA standard is C22.2 No. 18.3-04. It is a tri-national standard used in Canada, USA and Mexico.

The 600 volt rating on the devices has been removed. If the application calls for this rating, you can no longer use these devices. New NEMA rated devices with the proper rating should be purchased.

The LA15110 was a special manufactured for the airline industry. It has been discontinued for some time. It was a NEMA 5-15R flanged receptacle, with a brass nickel plated round flange, brown phenolic body having covered terminal screws and external wiring clamps. Offering as a suggested replacement would be our HBL5279. Which is a 5-15R flanged receptacle with a stainless steel round flange and brown phenolic body. The HBL5279 has covered terminal screws but not external wiring clamps.

" ("Construction Grade", "Industrial Grade", "Specification Grade", "Hospital Grade".) Of the terms used all are marketing descriptions except "Hospital Grade." "Hospital Grade" plugs and receptacles undergo a more stringent battery of UL administered performance tests to earn a "Hospital Grade” designation. Construction/ Commercial/ Specification/ Industrial are terms we use to stratify our product offering, Good-Better-Best strategy. These terms mean different things to different manufacturers and there is no industry requirement that these need to meet. At Hubbell we've always been most put off by the "Specification Grade" term. As long as the correct receptacle is chosen for the given application it should be specified! So all of our duplexes carry the "Specification Grade" description. That leaves "Construction Grade" and "Industrial Grade." It is our feeling that people intuitively know an industrial application when they see it. If you have to buy parts for an industrial job you're thinking: "I need one seriously tough stuff for this job." The Construction and Industrial grade receptacles are both very well constructed. You need to ask, "Do I need a 80 ton, Tri-Axle truck or will my pick up truck be enough truck for the job?" Do I need all brass parts used with reinforced nylon or will steel do? As for Hubbell receptacles and switches, any devices beginning with the letter "C" will handle most everyday electrical applications but when devices are used in factory environments or subject to impact or hard use, go with the Tri-Axle truck, use devices with the "HBL" prefix.

At this time we do not manufacture a NEMA TT-30 configuration.

Yes our HBL5362M4 is an orange 20A 125V duplex receptacle. We sell them in a bulk pack of 100.

Yes our HBL4795. It is a side wired duplex receptacle that can be wired to two different 125V circuits. It have a NEMA 5-15R on the top and L5-15R on the bottom.

We recommend ground up. UL or NEMA does not indicate ground up or down, the positioning is a matter of choice. The rationale is that a metallic object falling on a partially inserted plug will be more likely to contact the ground blade of a three wire plug rather than the hot blade. If mounted horizontally, oriented the ground to the left to have the neutral blade on top rather than the hot blade.

NEMA 5-20R receptacles have one vertical slot (hot), a "T" slot (neutral) and a ground slot. A receptacle with a 20A configuration will accept a 20A plug (NEMA 5-20P has one vertical blade and one horizontal blade and a ground) and a 15A plug (NEMA 5-15P has two vertical blades and a ground). A NEMA 5-15R receptacle has two vertical slots (hot & neutral), and a ground slot. A NEMA 5-15R receptacle will only accept a NEMA 5-15P. (NOTE: Both NEMA 5-15R and 5-20R receptacles will accept NEMA 1-15P non-grounding plugs)

At this time we do not manufacture a NEMA 7-20 configuration. It is not a miss-print. We can offer a NEMA 7-15 configuration.

A service to repair the HBL9259 is not available, a new one will have to be purchased.

Yes, the catalog number for the replacement plug is D5590401.

These are optional per ANSI/ NEMA WD6. They can be used for manufacturing carriers. The holes were there to help with plug retention. Some manufactures put small bumps on the contacts in their connectors and receptacles. The bumps engage into the holes. UL standards no longer allow this as a retention aid.

A 15A 120V receptacle is a NEMA 5-15 configuration, it only accepts a plug with two vertical blades and a ground (if present). A 20A 120V receptacle is a NEMA 5-20 configuration, one vertical slot (hot) and a T slot (neutral). You can plug a NEMA 5-15 plug (two vertical blades and a ground) into a NEMA 5-15 and 5-20 receptacle and connector. You can only plug a NEMA 5-20 plug (one vertical blade and one horizontal blade) into a NEMA 5-20 receptacle and connector.

We don't manufacture plugs with crimp terminations. The only plug we make with terminals different than the screw/ clamp type is the HBL5966VBLK which utilizes an "insulation displacement" termination.

Yes, we have added an MRI specific duplex to our Hospital Grade product line. The 15A (HBL8200xMRI) or 20A (HBL8300xMRI) MRI duplex receptacles contains no ferrous metals making the product non-magnetic. Contact Technical Service for available colors.

All UL Listed Hospital Grade devices have the green dot. The green dot indicates to the user that the product is Hospital Grade. If it isn't a Hospital application, you might want to consider using our Extra Heavy Duty Industrial Series.

UL dictates how "tight" we can make the contacts. Generally they have to hold a plug attached to a 3 lb. weight but they have to drop a 15 lb. weight. Our top-of-the-line Extra Heavy Duty Industrial Series (HBL5362) and Hospital Grade (HBL8300) devices are considered by most as the best in the industry. We use solid brass contacts and a patented design to make these devices last the longest and survive the most abusive and critical applications. All receptacles leave the factory at the upper end of the UL tolerance, these devices will stay that way the longest. In the relatively mechanical stress free receptacle life of high-end audio applications the top-end receptacles would outlive the equipment plugged into them.

RW90 is a type of wire used in applications in Canada. Our raceway is not certified for use with this wire. The marking is to indicate that this wire should not be used in PremiseTrak.

The PB3IND box uses the center channel to mount the device. There are two "windows" that allow access to the upper and lower channels. They can be used to access or restrict access to the center channel. However you cannot mix power and data and once that is established you can't allow access through the windows. The PB3IND2G is similar to the one gang except the upper and lower channels mount devices and the center is the empty channel. Same windows are used. Same rules apply. Also, the center channel is quite narrow and restricts the raceway to 62% of the original cross-sectional area.

Yes. In fact there are many cases when someone is forced to do so; in cases where there are pillars or inside and outside corners. As long as the correct fittings are used, maintain maximum gaps and other electrical requirements the application should be fine.

Normally all Hubbell raceway metal or non-metallic is 600 volts. The only exception is the HBL2000 raceway which is rated at 300V because of the thinner cover. Canada requires that non-metallic raceway which has been certified for use at 600 volts be explicitly marked "600 volts maximum".

No. To maintain the UL listing, our metallic raceway can only connect to the competition's raceway with our listed transition fittings.

Our non-metallic raceway is Office White.

We do not recommend painting Non-Metallic Raceway, but with that said, many people still do. Customers have lightly scuffed up the cover and base outer surfaces with sand paper to help with paint adhesion and use a latex based paint. It is recommended that the user test the combination in a small area to confirm the paint adhesion and no damage to raceway occurs.

Yes, we sell touch-up paint pens. Ivory- HBLIWEP, White- HBLWWEP and Gray- HBLGWEP.

The cubic inch capacity is molded on the inside of our non-metallic raceway boxes.

The maximum weight rating of our HBL500 and HBL750 series fixture boxes is stamped on the top of the box covers.

There are no restrictions of the wire fill of the raceway due to the box PB2IND2G. According to the instruction sheet for the raceway you can put 23 Cat 6 cables (at .25 diameter) in either channel.

Almond devices and wall plates are the best color match.

You can only install #10 gauge wire or smaller wire in non-metallic raceway.

We no longer sell a AC-DC rated toggle switch. Customers have told us they would typically use a single pole switch to control a DC rated relay.

Two keys are supplied with our barrel key locking switches and one key is supplied with our slide guide key locking switches.

The HBL1388 is not listed as a transfer switch, we can not recommend it for your application. You should contact Hubbell Industrial Controls for a listed transfer switch. www.hubbell-icd.com

The SS12RKL single gang stainless steel wallplates can be used with all our RKL switches. (NOTE: At this time we do not have nylon plates for our barrel key switches)

No. That would be either the job for two independent single-pole switches, each on its own respective single-pole breaker, or one switch that is fed with a 2-pole common trip breaker. Both scenarios would ensure the switch is de-energized if the breaker(s) is toggled off or trips off.

No one sells Hospital Grade Switches. UL does not have category for Hospital Grade Switches. Typically our HBLs Extra Heavy Duty Industrial Series Switches are used in Hospitals. We have 15A and 20A straight blade hospital grade devices. We also sell 20A, 50A and 60A Hubbellocks products that are used in Hospitals.

No. Classic Accents Inc sell the old two button style light switches and plates. Their website is http://www.classicaccents.net

Single pole, double pole, 3-way and 4-way switches have to pass a 50,000 cycles minimum, tungsten filament lamp load at rated current in order to be Fed Spec listed.

There is a number ordering system with Hubbell NEMA rated Twist-Locks devices . Receptacles end with zero, example- HBL2310. Flanged receptacles end with six, example- HBL2316, Connector Bodies end with three, example-HBL2313. Plugs end with one, example- HBL2311. Flanged inlets end with five, example- HBL2315. In this example all these devices are 20amp 125 volts.

I'm sorry but we no longer carry that inlet. The catalog number used to be 3349. At this time we do not carry a inlet with a safety ignition interlocking switch.

The HBL2030AP can be installed to any two gang box.

No one sells Hospital Grade Locking devices. UL does not have category for hospital grade locking devices, only for 15A and 20A straight blade devices. We sell 20A, 50A and 60A Hubbellock® products that are used in hospitals.

At one point Hubbell used to have eight Variload configurations. Due to lack of sales over the years we currently carry four. The other four configurations are discontinued. The only recommendation that we have is to replace the receptacle with one of the current configurations available and any connecting plugs.

Horsepower ratings for NEMA Twist-Lock® and Hubbellock® devices plugs and receptacles are generic. They are all equal and cannot be greater or less than any other. Because all NEMA plugs and receptacles are rated HP rated, that marking is optional as defined in the UL Standard for Attachment Plugs and Receptacles, UL498 table 163.1 (All plugs - Exception No. 2). The UL Guide card for attachment plugs specifies the HP rating for all NEMA configuration. This is usually the only documentation required for inspectors at time of installation.

You can not use a two gang box for two locking receptacles with a 1.56" face diameter, you will have to install them in a three gang box. If you try to install them in a two gang box you will only be able to use one receptacle at a time. The receptacles will be 1.81" on center. The body diameter of our locking plugs are 2.13". We do offer a three gang plate for two receptacles in stainless steel, the center gang is blank. The 3-gang plate catalog number is SS320.

Yes. The HBL2710AR is the receptacle with an angled housing. It can be mounted to any single gang box.

No. All the Safety-Shroud Receptacles (TwistLocks ending with AR, SR and SR2) are IP20. If you need a watertight receptacle you will need to install a Watertight Safety-Shroud Receptacle (ending in SW).

The HBL7774WO weatherproof lift cover is designed for the 50A Twist-Lock receptacle (IE; CS6369), not the inlet. At this time we do not have a weatherproof lift cover that our metallic 50A Twist-Lock flanged inlets can mount into. Our customers have used our HBL6375S instead. It's the replacement Inlet for our 50A Spider II box. The HBL6375S is non-metallic with the same blade configuration and it has a integral spring loaded lift cover. The inlet can be mounted to our BB2030N (non-metallic angled back box) or to anyone's two gang weatherproof deep box by using our HBL2030AP adapter plate.

The HBL26401 box is designed to be used with an adapter (either HBL26402 or HBL26404) for the 60A Hubbellock receptacles (IE; HBL26401), not the inlet. At this time we do not have a box or cover that a 60A Hubbellock flanged inlets can mount into. They can only be panel mounted.

I'm sorry but we do not have weatherproof boots for out 60A Hubbellock plugs and connectors. If you need a plug and connector that is weatherproof you can use one of our Pin & Sleeve products. See our on line catalog or contact Technical Service for product information.

I'm sorry, but not at this time.

Our 60A Hubbellocks receptacles; HBL26520,HBL26410 and HBL26420, will not mount directly to the HBL26401 back box. One of our adapters are required. Either the HBL26402 (straight adapter) or HBL26404 (angled adapter).

We have the HBL50SC; 4 inch square, 1/2 inch raised steel cover for a 4" square box. All our 50A Twist Locks receptacles (except Hubbell-Pro Series) can be used with this cover; CS6370, CS8269, CS8469, CS6369, CS8369, CS8169, HBL3771, HBL3769 and HBL7379. Typically the receptacle mounts to the cover (hardware included) and you mount the cover to the 4 inch square box. The HBL50SC also has four concentric holes that will enable the cover to mount directly to any two gang box.

Yes, our HBL2813SW (Watertight Safety-Shroud line) will mate with our HBL2811S (Safety-Shroud line) but the connection will only have a Type 1 rating, not a 4X watertight rating.

Yes. You will need to order a HBLMITL Watertight Safety-Shroud Mechanical Interlock and a HBL2715SWR (NEMA L14-30) reverse service inlet which is field installed. The HBL2711SWR is the mating reverse service plug.

No one manufactures a NEMA locking configuration L14-50R. NEMA locking configurations only go up to 30A. L14-50R indicates a 3-pole 4-wire, 125/250V, 50A locking receptacle. Our CS6369 has those ratings. The mating plug is CS6365C. For ship-to-shore application the HBL63CM69 (receptacle) and HBL63CM69 (plug) can be used.

Yes our HBL4795. It is a side wired duplex receptacle that can be wired to two different 125V circuits. It have a NEMA 5-15R on the top and L5-15R on the bottom.

No one manufactures a NEMA locking configuration L21-50P, locking configurations only go up to 30A. L21-50P indicates a 4-pole 5-wire, 3 phase 120/208V, 50A locking plug is needed. We have to recommend going to our 60A Pin & Sleeve line. Our HBL560P9W has a 4-pole 5-wire, 3 phase 120/208V, 60A rating. The mating plug is HBL560P9W.

No, the HBL2810SR Safety-Shroud® surface mount receptacle has to be mounted to a single gang box. As does our "AR" version with the angled housing.

No, the center pin on our CS6369 receptacle (as with all 50A Twistlock® receptacles with the center pin) is a rejection pin. It is not a ground or current carrying contact. The metal can on the side of the CS6369 is the ground contact. The rejection pin is so the dual rated configurations (50A 600VAC and 250V DC) are not interchangeable.

Yes, the HBLCSCK is the replacement cord clamp kit for our 50A Twistlock® plugs and connectors. When you order one HBLCSCK you will get one set of cords clamps and two cord clamps screws.

We carry a line of security wallplates that should work in your application. Search for catalog number SWP1 in our online catalog to get to the product offering.

The SS8 is manufactured with 302/304 stainless steel (17% chromium, 8% nickel) and the SS8L is manufactured with 430 stainless steel (17% chromium, 0.5% nickel). The 302/304 stainless steel is better for highly corrosive environments and non-magnetic applications.

A wallplate or weatherproof cover with a 1.40" will fill all 15 amp straight blade and locking single receptacles.

We do not have wallplates but we do have weatherproof covers and a adapter. Our WP1 will accept all our 15A nylon flanged receptacles and inlets. Our WP2 will accept all our 20A & 30A Twistlock® nylon flanged receptacles and inlets. Our HBL7349 will enable you to mount the WP1 and WP2 to a single gang box.

Yes, you can mount the HBL96061 brass locking switch cover in a multi-gang application.

Yes. We have our HBL96067 which is a brass locking single gang cover plate for a single receptacle that will fit into a 1.40" opening.

Yes, our stainless wallplates have a horizontal brush finish.

Hubbell Wiring Device-Kellems does not sell pipe or wire. We do sell 250 foot reels of cable so our customers can make their own 30A (YC310250) and 50A (YC306250 & YC406250) cord sets.

Bryant does not sell pipe or wire.

Using 500 Volts the resistance should not be less than 100 megohms.

Wire tinning, for the purpose of containing loose wire strands, is not a recommended practice for use with clamp/ screw terminations in wiring devices. The thermal properties of solder tend to allow for the redistribution of wire strands, particularly due the heating and cooling cycles common to wiring devices. This occurrence is commonly referred to as "cold-flow." In long-term usage, cold-flow could result in a runaway thermal condition progressing to excessive heat, arcing and/or fire.

AFCI's involve a technology that detects arcing-faults in electrical circuits that could cause fires. By recognizing characteristics unique to arcing and functioning to de-energize the circuit when an arc-fault is detected, AFCI's further reduce the risk of fire beyond the scope of conventional fuses and circuit breakers

We do not sell explosion proof fittings, you need to contact Hubbell-Killark. www.hubbell-killark.com

If a device has the automatic ground feature; it is referring the ground clip or staple on the bridge of the device. The staple and clip maintain continuity between the bridge and mounting screw. For a receptacle; the ground contact maintained will the grounding path through the bridge to the clip or staple to the metal box. For a switch; the metal wall plate will maintain a ground path through the metal wallplate screws through the bridge to the clip or staple to the metal box.

Listed products are suitable for general-use installations; as such, Conditions of Acceptability (COAs) are inherently not acceptable. Recognized components by contrast are only suitable for OEM use inside some other listed end-products (where UL can evaluate suitability of use in the specific listed end-product by considering COAs for adverse consequences); Recognized Components are not suitable for general-use installations and will be rejected by electrical inspectors if directly installed in the field.

We do not sell pipe fittings, you need to contact Hubbell-RACO. www.hubbell-raco.com

We only sell our products through distribution. You can locate a distributor from our wed-site; http://www.hubbell-wiring.com/distributors.aspx. To find the closest Hubbell distributor a search can be done by state or by zip code. Enter 2 or 3 digits for broad search, 6 digits for exact match.
