1-3/8″ PMIN Power Series Field Wireable Connectors

Mencom's new field wireable connectors are UL listed and provide IP69 protection. They are available in 3-pole and 4-pole with straight and right-angle orientations. Mencom is the industry's first electrical connector manufacturer to design and produce a right-angled version of the 1 3/8" field wireable connector. The right-angle profile is lower than the typical bend radius needed to mount a straight cable, providing a big advantage when installation space is limited. Also, it removes undesirable cable strain caused by bending cables to fit in tight spaces.
