Overview

The Woodhead 520R7 Safeway Pin & Sleeve Receptacle is a 20 Amp, 4-pole/5-wire industrial-grade device rated for 480V AC, designed for rugged environments. It features a Type G nylon housing and brass contacts, meeting IEC 309-1 and 309-2 standards for global power system compatibility. The flip lid provides IP44-rated protection against dust, debris, and accidental contact, while the self-adjusting split contact sleeves ensure consistent pressure for reliable electrical continuity. The latching mechanism prevents accidental disengagement, and the keyway ensures fast, accurate alignment during connection. Internal and external strain relief features reduce cable stress, accommodating a wide range of conductor sizes from 12 AWG to 10 AWG. The red housing identifies 480V applications, and the grounding sleeve is positioned at 7 o’clock for standard compliance. The receptacle is UL listed and CSA certified for safety and reliability. It is ideal for temporary power systems, portable equipment, and machinery in construction, manufacturing, and petrochemical industries, where durability and performance are critical. The 520R7 is also compatible with Woodhead Safeway connectors, ensuring seamless integration in industrial power distribution systems.
