Thomas & Betts 2279 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What cord diameter range does the Thomas & Betts 2279 strain relief connector clamp?
The 2279 grips cord from 1.18 to 1.375 inches in outside diameter. That's the working range of the clamp, so measure the jacket OD on the cable you're landing, not the conductor size. Anything thinner than 1.18 inches won't be gripped properly and the strain relief does nothing; for a smaller SO cord you need a connector with a lower range.
2) Why use a 90 degree cord connector instead of a straight one?
The right-angle body turns the cable immediately at the box, so the cord runs parallel to the enclosure instead of standing off it. Two reasons electricians pick it: clearance, when there isn't room in front of the panel for a straight connector plus a cable bend radius, and strain, because the elbow carries the bend rather than letting the cord kink at the termination. If you have open space in front of the enclosure, a straight strain relief connector is simpler and cheaper to land.
3) Is the Thomas & Betts 2279 cord connector metal or plastic?
Malleable iron, not nylon or plastic. That matters in two places: it holds up in industrial environments where a nylon body gets brittle or crushed, and it maintains the metallic path through the fitting, which is what you want on a metal enclosure with a metal-jacketed or shielded run. The tradeoff is weight and cost against a nylon connector in the same size.
4) Will the Thomas & Betts 2279 work on a machine cord that flexes in service?
That's what it's built for. The strain relief clamp distributes the mechanical pull across the cord jacket instead of letting it land on the conductor terminations inside the box, which is the usual failure point on equipment cords that get tugged or vibrated. Typical uses are industrial control panels, manufacturing equipment cable drops, and process and automation cabinets.
5) How do I order the correct Thomas & Betts 90 degree cord connector, and what is the part number?
Order it by Thomas & Betts part number 2279. Two things fix the selection: the 1-1/4 inch hub size, which has to match the knockout, and the 1.18 to 1.375 inch cord range, which has to bracket the actual jacket OD. Both have to be right; a correct hub size with the wrong cord range still leaves the cable loose in the clamp.
