Key Features and Benefits of This Camlock Receptacle

Rated for up to 600 amps and 600 volts, this receptacle handles the heavy current loads common in temporary power distribution.

Where to Use the 17R23-SG Camlock Receptacle

This receptacle suits temporary power distribution on construction sites, entertainment productions, oil and gas operations, and mining sites. Its NEMA 3R rating allows outdoor use in wet or exposed locations. It is intended for panel mounting rather than portable cable ends, so confirm the enclosure design before specifying it.

Installation and Compatibility Checks

Confirm the panel opening and cable range match this receptacle's 250-500 MCM (thousand circular mil) rating and threaded stud termination before installation. The green color coding should align with the phase or ground scheme used elsewhere in the temporary power system. UL-1691 (Underwriters Laboratories) listing supports use in compliant industrial installations.

Additional Buying Context

This receptacle is certified to UL-1691, the standard governing single-pole cam-type connectors used in temporary power work. Pairing it with matching color-coded male and female connectors from the Leviton 17 Series keeps a temporary distribution system correctly phased and easy to identify on site.
