Overview

The Woodhead Safeway® Flanged Inlet (SKU: 2434MB) delivers a secure 2-pole/3-wire NEMA L7-15 power connection rated for 277V and 15A. Designed for industrial environments, this inlet features a locking blade mechanism to prevent accidental disconnections, critical in high-vibration applications such as HVAC systems, industrial machinery, and power distribution panels. The flanged mounting design ensures a robust mechanical connection and simplifies installation in tight spaces. Its 3-wire configuration (2 poles + ground) supports grounded electrical systems for enhanced safety and compliance with industrial standards. Constructed with durable materials, including nickel-plated brass contacts and a nylon outer housing, the 2434MB meets UL, NEMA, and CSA standards for heavy-duty use. The tri-drive screw terminals accommodate straight blade, Phillips, and square-drive screwdrivers, while the floating blade construction provides self-alignment for a reliable mechanical and electrical connection. The two-piece cord-clamp strain relief with tri-drive screws secures cords firmly, minimizing wear and heat generation. With an operating temperature range of -40°C to 75°C and a maximum temperature rise of 30°C at full rated current, this inlet is built for consistent power delivery in demanding conditions.
