SP4
The Polaris SP4 Set Screw Plug is a replacement part that take the place of the secure removable plugs present in many Polaris pre-insulated connectors. This plug fits connectors sized for 4 AWG wires, covering the set screws used to tighten their connections. Protect the interior of your Polaris pre-insulated connectors, each port of which is pre-loaded with an oxide inhibitor to ensure a low-contact resistance connection, by guarding the set screws from outside contaminants. Polaris designs connectors for use in a wide range of splicing applications, including installation in cable trays, panel boards, ducts, raceways or troughs.
How to Install the DuraGard® Receptacle
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and wiring the DuraGard® receptacle for safe and effective use in industrial applications.
Estimated time: 1h
Tools needed:
Torque Wrench, Screwdrivers, Wire Strippers, Ohmmeter
Supplies needed:
Mounting screws, Gaskets, Terminal connectors
- Turn off power
Ensure all power to the circuit is turned OFF to prevent electrical shock during installation.
- Mount the junction box
Securely mount junction box #1 in the desired location and pull the service supply cable into the box, leaving enough length for connection to receptacle #2.
- Strip the cable
Strip the cable jacket 1 to 2 inches and strip the conductors 1/2 inch (for 30 & 50A) or 3/4 inch (for 60A) to prepare for wiring.
- Connect the conductors
Loosen the pressure screws in the receptacle sleeves, insert the stripped ends of each conductor according to the established wiring pattern, and tighten the screws to the specified torque (20 in-lbs for 30 & 50A, 25 in-lbs for 60A).
- Assemble the receptacle
Assemble gasket #6 and receptacle #2 to junction box #1 using the provided screws to secure everything in place.
- Perform electrical testing
Before powering on, use an ohmmeter to check for continuity and verify correct phasing and grounding connections. Ensure there are no short circuits.
- Power on and test
Once all connections are verified, turn the power back on and test the system to ensure proper functionality.
