Photocell Power Adapter Tap for Streetlight

The Rfwel Infra PHTCELTAP is a NEMA twist-lock adapter that draws continuous 120 VAC power from an existing streetlight photocontrol socket. It is designed for installers who need to supply outdoor radio equipment without disrupting the luminaire's normal operation. The unit provides a Micro-Link female output for direct device connection.

Practical limits of the ANSI C136.10 interface

The adapter complies with ANSI C136.10 and accepts a 100 to 480 VAC input range while delivering a fixed 120 VAC output. It supports loads up to 1800 VA, which is sufficient for high-power long-range microwave radios. The three-pin design does not pass control signals through to the connected device.

What to verify before ordering

Confirm that the streetlight fixture has a compatible NEMA twist-lock receptacle matching the ANSI C136.10 standard. Ensure the connected equipment operates on 120 VAC and does not exceed the 1800 VA rating. The 10 ft, 16 AWG SOOW cord length determines placement flexibility relative to the socket.

Questions about this item

Which cable length suits my streetlight mounting height?

The adapter ships with a 10 ft 16 AWG SOOW cord that reaches most pole-top fixtures from the NEMA socket.

What does the 120 VAC continuous rating mean for my radio gear?

It delivers steady 120 VAC at up to 1800 VA so even high-power microwave radios run without voltage drops.

How does the ANSI C136.10 twist-lock limit what I can plug in?

The 3-pin twist-lock seats only in standard NEMA photocontrol receptacles and provides power but no control pass-through.
