NEMA 14-50R 50A receptacle for dryer circuits

This ETL certified female connector handles 50 amps at 125/250 volts and suits dryer or range installations. The yellow nylon housing meets UL 94-V0 and RoHS REACH requirements. Terminals are marked X, Y, Z, G and W for clear identification. Two extra strain reliefs are included for a secure cord fit.

Cord gauge limits and current ratings

The receptacle accepts 12 to 6 AWG three-conductor cords such as SJT, ST, STO and similar types. Maximum ampacity drops with smaller wire: 50 amps on 6 AWG, 40 amps on 7/8 AWG, 30 amps on 9/10 AWG and 25 amps on 11/12 AWG. Cord outer diameter must not exceed 31.5 millimetres (1.24 inches). Compliance follows UL 498:2017 Ed.16+R:20Jun2024 and CSA C22.2#42:2010 Ed.7+U1 through U5.

Wiring and common installation issues

Terminal markings X, Y, Z, G and W guide correct line, neutral and ground connections. Strain reliefs must match the cable jacket to prevent pull-out. The turn-and-pull locking action requires firm engagement; incomplete insertion can cause overheating. Installers without NEMA 14-50R experience should consult a qualified electrician to verify circuit breaker sizing and wiring method.
