Power Connectors & Accessories
Our HPT Series™ Power Connectors and Accessories, an extension of our highly successful HP Series™ (Blue/Grey) Power Connector
line, brings significant safety and reliability improvements to the marketplace! Designed to be fully plug compatible with both the
original and latest industry standard products, UL Recognized and VDE approved to IEC 61984 to 5,000 circuit-breaking mating cycles.
With an easier-to-use, innovative, patented, cable clamp lock design safety feature, the HPT Series™ is an ideal “first choice”, or
“drop in” replacement, for your lighting fixture, video wall, special effects, powered loud speaker or power distribution interconnect
needs.
HPT Series™ Power Connectors are perfect for AC power supply where a durable, latched, twist-locking, circuit-breaking connector
is required, and are rated at 20A @ 250V. HPT Series™ Power Connectors can be connected or disconnected under load and are IP65
rated.
Market Applications: Entertainment & Broadcast Lighting, LED Video Walls, Stage Power Distribution Boxes, and Powered
Loud Speakers

• High impact, UV resistant materials
• True Mains Connector with Current Breaking Capacity (CBC)
• Industry standard mating interface
• IP65 & UL50E Type 4 Enclosure rated (in mated condition or in conjunction with our accessory covers)
• Standard inline versions are UL rated for 14-3 SO OD cordage with a locking cable clamp**
• Jumbo versions (“J”) are UL rated for 12-3 SO OD cordage without a locking cable clamp**
• U.S. Patents: 10,186,804; D839,193; B840,341
• Licensed under the following global patents: US 10823914B2, JP 6705027B2, HK 40009428A, EP 3514892B1, EP 3641070A1,
DE 102018101431A1, CN 110071397A
*Compred to competitors’ products VDE approved to IEC 60320 Appliance Coupler Standard at 50 circuit-breaking cycles.
**In order to accommodate the larger OD’s of the 600V “SO” Cord in our jumbo connector design, the backshell locking feature was
eliminated from the “Jumbo” designs. While the locking back shell is an added personnel safety feature, it is not a requirement of the
NEC or UL.
IMPORTANT: This is the First UL Recognized Inline Connector on the market that accommodates up to 12-3 “SO” (600V) Portable Cord
as REQUIRED in “Extra Hard Usage” Applications as defined by the NEC. (See Table 400.4 of NFPA 70: National Electrical Code (NEC)
2017 Edition.)

Accessories
Unlike our competitor’s one-piece molded lanyard closure cap design, our more robust, bead chain design allows easy replacement
by simply unscrewing a single mounting screw from the panel mount connector, slipping our bead chain lanyard under the panel
mount screw hole, then reassembling the screw. This is a significant labor savings and will allow easy field replacement, no matter
the location, while maintaining both IP65 and 3rd party certification even when applied to competitive panel mount base gasket
and connectors. We also offer spring-closure caps for all 3 sizes of panel mount connectors for an additional level of protection for
unmated connections.
