Overview

The Woodhead Safeway® Single Receptacle (SKU 4747) is a heavy-duty, spec-grade electrical receptacle engineered for industrial and commercial environments requiring reliable 125V power distribution. Designed to meet NEMA L5-20 standards, this 2-pole/3-wire receptacle features a locking blade mechanism to prevent accidental disconnections in high-vibration or high-traffic areas. The impact-resistant nylon housing and nickel-plated brass contacts ensure durability across extreme operating temperatures from -40°C to 75°C. Stainless steel face screws and brass wire saddle clamps enhance longevity, while the compact 4.0 cm (1.56 inches) face diameter allows installation in tight spaces. The floating blade construction provides self-alignment for better mechanical and electrical connections, minimizing wear and heat generation. With a maximum 30°C temperature rise at full rated current, this receptacle delivers consistent performance even under continuous load. Certified to UL File No. E46237 and CSA File No. LR6837, it meets stringent industry regulations for safety-critical applications. Fully compatible with Safeway and Super-Safeway plugs and connectors, SKU 4747 is ideal for industrial machinery, construction sites, manufacturing facilities, data centers, and commercial buildings where reliability and compliance are paramount. The tri-drive terminal screws (compatible with straight blade, Phillips, and square-drive screwdrivers) simplify wiring, while the transparent wiring guide ensures proper strand placement before securing wires. The two-piece cord-clamp strain relief with tri-drive screws provides secure cord retention, reducing maintenance costs and downtime in mission-critical systems.
