Application Notes
This NEMA L6-30 locking power cord is designed to deliver 20A/250V power from a NEMA L6-30 male twist-lock plug to a IEC320 C19 connector. The L6-30 configuration is a 2-pole, 3-wire (hot-hot-ground) locking plug commonly used for 250V single-phase applications including commercial HVAC equipment, compressors, welders, and other heavy-duty industrial loads. The L6-30 is also the primary connector for high-density Power Distribution Units (PDUs) in server racks. The 12 AWG, 3 wire jacket is rated for 20A.
The twist-lock design provides a secure mechanical connection that helps prevent accidental disconnection due to vibration or movement. The connected load must not exceed the 20A rating of the cable assembly and upstream circuit protection.
Product FAQs
What is a NEMA L6-30 locking power cord?
A NEMA L6-30 locking power cord features an L6-30 male twist-lock plug on one end. It is used to connect equipment to a 30A 250V locking receptacle while providing a secure, vibration-resistant connection.
What voltage does an L6-30 support?
The L6-30 configuration supports 250 volts in a single-phase system using two hot conductors and a ground (no neutral). Always confirm voltage and amperage compatibility before connecting equipment.
What is the amperage of this cable?
The 12 AWG 3 wire cord supports up to 20A.
