PLUG OPERATION
Electrical connection between plug and compatible receptacle is accomplished
after plug fully inserts into receptacle and rotated clockwise.
1.
Lift receptacle door and locate polarization on mating plug pin and
receptacle face. Insert plug straight all the way into receptacle until it
cannot go further.
2.
Rotate plug clockwise limit (37º), this closes internal contacts and
completes circuit. This also mechanically locks plug into receptacle so it
cannot be pulled out.

The EPP-30A-2P3W-1FT-L1430 from Larson Electronics is an Explosion Proof Plug that is rated at 30 amps and along
with our with our EPP-30A series plug is compatible with our EPO-30A explosion proof 30 amp outlet. This plug can
only be used in T style outlets and in order to retain explosion proof safety it must be mated to an explosion proof outlet.
This plug is designed to lock into compatible receptacles by twisting the plug body until an audible click is heard, which
indicates the plug is securely connected. Once locked into place this plug will not accidentally pull out. This plug is ideal
for applications where moisture and corrosion is a problem and well suited for use in marine and manufacturing
environments. The EPP-30A-2P3W-1FT-L1430 is 125/250V rated and is equipped with a L14-30C female connector.
