Overview

The Woodhead Safeway® Connector (SKU: 5469) is a 2 Pole/3 Wire connector designed for industrial power distribution. It features a NEMA 6-20 configuration and a 250V rating, ensuring reliable power transmission for demanding applications. Constructed with a durable nylon housing, this connector meets stringent industry standards for safety and performance. The 2-pole + ground (2P+G) design provides balanced power and essential safety grounding. Its physical characteristics include nickel-plated brass plug blades and connector contacts, stainless steel face screws, and a nylon face insert. The cord clamp screws are steel, zinc-plated, and the wire saddle clamp is brass. Designed for wire ranges of .335 to .640 inches, it operates reliably in temperatures from -40°C to 75°C. The connector is built to withstand a maximum 30°C temperature rise at full rated current after 50 cycles of overload at 150% of rated current with a 75% power factor. This makes it suitable for heavy machinery, control panels, and high-power equipment in manufacturing, warehouses, and construction sites. Woodhead's Safeway® series is recognized for its compliance with UL and CSA certifications, offering peace of mind for professionals prioritizing safety and performance.
