Overview

The Woodhead Safeway® Plug with Locking Blade (SKU: 26T81YL) provides secure 3-phase, 208V electrical connections for industrial applications. This NEMA L21-20, 4-pole/5-wire plug features a locking design to prevent accidental disconnections, ensuring uninterrupted power delivery in critical operations. Constructed with NEo-TEX® Paracril OZO rubber housing, it resists abrasion, chemicals, and extreme temperatures (-40°C to 75°C). Nickel-plated brass contacts deliver reliable electrical conductivity, while the floating blade design enables self-alignment, reducing wear and heat generation during high-load cycles. Tri-drive screw terminals with captive stainless steel speed screws simplify wiring, and a two-piece cord-clamp strain relief secures cables firmly. The transparent wiring guide allows verification of all wire strands before securing. UL File No. E10176 and CSA File No. LR6837 certified for safety and compliance. Plug/connector range: 0.425 to 1.150 inches. Maximum continuous operating temperature: 75°C; minimum: -40°C. Rated for 20A at 208V, 3-phase.
