Industrial IEC Connector
The Hubbell HBL420C7W is a watertight pin-and-sleeve connector rated for 20A at 480V AC. It serves three-phase, four-wire grounding circuits in industrial environments where moisture, corrosion and impact resistance are required. The red Zytel 801 nylon housing provides colour-coded voltage identification for quick visual verification on site.
Capacity and Headroom
The device accepts conductor sizes from #14 AWG to #10 AWG via pressure terminal screws. Cord-mounted configuration supports cable diameters from 0.33 in to 0.83 in. IP68 and IP69K ratings confirm protection against prolonged immersion and high-pressure wash-down, while CSA LR280C and UL classification to IEC 60309-1/2 certify compliance for demanding service conditions.
Upgrade Path
This connector replaces worn or non-watertight IEC 60309 devices on existing 20A 480V three-phase circuits. The jump is worth it when the installation demands IP68 or IP69K ingress protection, colour-coded voltage identification, or a spring-loaded self-closing gasketed cover that the original fitting lacks. It is not for single-phase loads, lower voltage systems, or conductor sizes outside the #14#10 AWG range.

Questions about this item
Will this 20 A 480 V red connector mate with existing IEC 60309-1/2 inlets on my older three-phase equipment?
Yes, it follows IEC 60309-1/2 so it will match any standard 20 A 480 V three-phase four-wire inlet of the same colour code
How can I verify the IP68/IP69K seal is intact after I wire the #14–#10 AWG conductors into the pressure terminals?
Close the spring-loaded gasketed cover; the shrouded contacts and latched cover give tactile confirmation that the watertight seal is engaged
Does the package include a matching plug or cable gland, or must I order them separately?
Only the connector body with its attached cover is supplied; a mating plug and any cable gland for the 0.33–0.83 in cord range are purchased separately
