Industrial Watertight Plug 6-20P
This Ericson 1516-PW6P-AM is a straight-blade plug rated 20 A at 250 V AC with a NEMA 6-20P configuration. Its yellow thermoplastic elastomer housing meets IP69K for wash-down environments and includes antimicrobial resistance. The device accepts cable diameters from 0.3 in to 0.625 in and carries a 2 hp motor rating for single-phase industrial equipment.
Suits wet-area machinery.
Maintenance teams wiring 250 V single-phase motors, pumps or heaters in food-processing or outdoor plants will find the watertight seal and antimicrobial housing appropriate. Installations that need a neutral conductor, a different NEMA pin layout, or voltage below 250 V AC cannot use this plug. Builders running three-phase loads or requiring a locking connector should select another device.
Deciding spec: NEMA 6-20P at 20 A 250 V AC
The NEMA 6-20P rating fixes the plug to 20 A, 250 V AC, two-pole, three-wire service without a neutral. If the circuit or equipment calls for any other voltage, amperage or pin arrangement, this part will not fit. Match the nameplate on the load to 20 A 250 V single-phase before specifying this plug.

Questions about this item
How do I confirm the IP69K watertight seal is working after wiring the 6-20P plug?
After assembly, inspect the gasket seating and tighten the cable gland until the 0.3–0.625 in cable is firmly gripped; the yellow thermoplastic elastomer housing should show no gaps, and the antimicrobial surface remains intact.
What comes in the box and what must I supply for the 1516-PW6P-AM plug?
The plug body, blades and internal gasket are included; you must provide a 250 V AC cable with an outer diameter between 0.3 and 0.625 in and suitable 20 A rated conductors.
Which NEMA configuration matches a 20 A 250 V single-phase circuit for this industrial-grade plug?
The 6-20P configuration listed is the correct NEMA straight-blade choice for 20 A, 250 V AC, single-phase loads up to 2 hp.
