• Contacts exert constant pressurealong entire contact surface and provideelectrical continuity.• Suitable for use from -40°C to 107°C(-40°F to 225°F.)• Choice of receptacle types: weather-proof spring door and NEMA 4X screwcap (30-, 60- and 100-ampere). Weath-erproof spring door and NEMA 4Xclamp cover (200-ampere). Raintightclamp cover (400-ampere).• Insulating blocks provide greatest di-electric and mechanical strength andlowest moisture absorption, lowest "arctracking."• Positive polarization: only plugs and re-ceptacles of same style, number of polesand ampere rating can be used together.• "Circuit breaking": in 30- through 200-amp units, any arcing created as lineand load terminals disengage is safelyconfined deep within terminal cavities.Plugs may be withdrawn in an emer-gency under full rated loads withoutseparate disconnect switches (400-ampplug for disconnecting use only-not forcurrent rupturing).• 30-, 60- and 100-ampere Powertite®plugs also suitable for classified loca-tions when used with Appleton EBR,EBRH, JBR, MD2SR, or DBR explo-sion-proof interlocking receptacles (seeCatalog Section L).• Controlled length contacts ensure thatground makes first and breaks last foradded safety.Standard Materials• Plug, receptacle, connector andmounting box housings: copper-free alu-minum.• Insulating blocks: fiber glass rein-forced polyester.• Contacts: 30-,60- and 100-amperehave brass contacts with beryllium cop-per springs and 400-ampere has coppercontacts with borosilicate bearings. 200-ampere has split-type copper contacts.200-400 style 2 ground contacts arebrass.Standard Finishes• Aluminum plug, receptacle, connec-tor and mounting box housings: epoxypowder coat.• Insulating blocks and contacts: nat-ural finish.

Options• Special Polarization: Add suffix-P4 tocatalog number of receptacle or con-nector. Prevents plug insertion in a re-ceptacle or connector wired for adifferent voltage.• Suffix-P4: Looking at face of recep-tacle, the receptacle interior or con-nector interior is rotated 22-1/2°(relative to the polarization rib) clock-wise of standard and plug is polarizedto correspond.• Reverse Service: Add suffix-RS tocatalog number. Useful where a "hot"plug feeds a dead receptacle.30-, 60- and 100-ampere-add suffix-RSto catalog number (or may be easilyperformed in the field with a screw-driver only) when matching plug and re-ceptacle are ordered. 200- and 400-ampere-add suffix-RS to catalog num-ber. Available as a factory assembleditem only at extra cost.Compliances• UL Standard 498, 1682, 1686• CSA Specification C22.2 No. 42• NEMA 4X (30, 60, 100, 200A)• Appleton malleable iron productsconform to ASTM A47-77, Grade32510, which has the following proper-ties: tensile strength, 50,000 psi; yield,32,000 psi; and elongation, 10%.• Appleton aluminum products are pro-duced from a high strength copper-free(4/10 of 1% max.) alloy.Product Cross Reference• For classified location plugs, recep-tacles, and connectors, see CatalogSection L.Illustrated Features:
30A, 60A and 100A Spring Door andScrew Cap receptacles are threaded toaccept clamping ring ACP plug. Thering threads onto the receptacle to forma raintight assembly with plug in use-and also to prevent plug fallout. Whenthe plug is withdrawn, the gasketedSpring Door cover closes tightly againstreceptacle opening automatically, pro-viding weatherproof protection. SpringDoor has stainless steel spring andshaft.
Spring Door cover of the 30, 60, 100Aunits may be located at any positionin a 360° circle by adjusting a setscrew.Set screw also allows complete re-moval of cover. Spring door availableon 200A units.
NOTE: Spring Door cover in open po-sitions for illustration only.
ACP plugs are supplied with four bush-ings to accommodate a wide variety ofcable diameters. 30 Amp plug clampused in first position with smallest I.D.bushing provides positive grip on ca-bles as small as .390", such as thosethat are used in oil rig installations.
1st Position 2nd Position
Reversible cable clamp (just loosenscrews and flip over) permits widecable range. Each position accommo-dates one of two bushings. Convenientin installations having different cablesizes.
