Industrial Watertight Connector 20A 125V
This Ericson 1612-CW6P-AM straight blade connector is built for industrial environments that demand reliable power connections. It accepts cables from .3 to .63 inches in diameter and carries a 20 amp, 125V AC rating with a 1 hp motor load capacity. The yellow thermoplastic elastomer housing resists corrosion and includes antimicrobial properties for hygienic workspaces.
Replacing Standard Indoor Receptacles
Upgrade from basic indoor plugs when equipment operates in wash-down areas, outdoor sites, or anywhere dust and water threaten standard fittings. The jump is worth it when IP65, IP66, or IP67 protection is required by site safety plans or when antimicrobial surfaces are specified for food or pharmaceutical lines. The 5-20R NEMA configuration matches existing 20A 125V circuits without rewiring.
Limits of Straight Blade 5-20R Interface
The NEMA 5-20R layout locks this connector to single-phase 125V AC service at 20 amps maximum. It cannot serve higher voltages, three-phase loads, or currents above the rated value. The two-pole, three-wire design provides grounding but no neutral switching or power-indicating light. Cable diameter must stay within the .3 to .63 inch range for the watertight seal to function.

Questions about this item
What cable diameters does the 1612-CW6P-AM accept?
The connector fits cables from .3 in to .63 in outer diameter, so the jacket must fall inside that range before you strip the conductors.
Which NEMA configuration and wire count should I prepare for when wiring the 5-20R connector?
The device is a 5-20R straight-blade receptacle with 2 poles and 3 wires; connect line, neutral and ground to the corresponding terminals and torque to the manufacturer’s spec.
How often should the antimicrobial thermoplastic elastomer housing be inspected in an industrial setting?
Inspect the yellow housing at least annually for cuts, abrasion or chemical damage; replace the connector if the IP65 IP66 IP67 seals show degradation or the antimicrobial surface is compromised.
