Hubbell SHC1017 Wire Cap Connector

The Hubbell SHC1017 is a straight liquid-tight cord connector built for electrical installations that require a secure, sealed entry point. Its aluminium body and white gland colour code identify the cord range at a glance. The connector accepts a single cord and threads into a standard 1/2 in MNPT box opening. It is supplied new and ready for field wiring.

Cord diameter range .31 in to .38 in

This connector only fits cords with an outside diameter between .31 in and .38 in. The 1/2 in MNPT thread mates with the corresponding box hub, while the 7/8 in body length determines how far the connector protrudes. No external strain relief is included, so the installer must provide cable support separately. CSA LR27378 and UL E54218 listings confirm compliance for the stated range.

Suited for installers sealing one small-diameter

Electricians pulling a single cable in the .31 to .38 in range will find the SHC1017 a direct fit. Buyers who need to accommodate larger cords, multiple conductors, or an integrated strain-relief gland should look at other models. The lack of insulation and external relief also means this part is not intended for environments that demand those features.

Questions about this item

What cord diameters does the .31 to .38 range actually accommodate in a live installation?

The connector accepts cords from .31 in to .38 in diameter, matching the stated range for a liquid-tight seal.

How does the 1/2 in MNPT box connection limit the enclosures I can use?

It threads into a standard 1/2 in MNPT opening, so the enclosure must provide that exact threaded hub.

What clearance does the 7/8 in body length require inside the box?

The connector extends 7/8 in from the box face, so allow at least that depth behind the mounting surface.
