Cooper Wiring Devices CWL515P – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which Cooper CWL locking flanged outlet do I order for a 277 volt circuit?
Two voltages are offered in the Cooper Wiring Devices CWL Safety Grip locking flanged outlet: the 125 volt version, model CWL515P, and the 277 volt version, model CWL715P. Both are 15A, two-pole three-wire devices. The 277 volt device is not interchangeable with 125 volt cord caps, so match the voltage to the circuit and to the mating connector already in use on the equipment.
2) What size wire can I land on the Cooper CWL 15A locking device?
Terminations take #16 through #12 AWG, and it is a back-wired device, so conductors enter from the rear rather than wrapping around side screws. That range covers 14 AWG branch circuits at 15 amps and 12 AWG where the circuit was run heavier. Anything larger than 12 AWG will not terminate.
3) Can I run a 20 amp load through this Cooper CWL device?
No. It is a 15A device, and the blade pattern on 15 amp locking devices will not mate with a 20 amp locking cord cap. For a 20 amp machine hookup you need a 20 amp locking flanged outlet and matching cap, not this one.
4) Can this locking outlet be used in an unheated warehouse or outdoors on equipment?
Operating range is -40 to 60 degrees C, which covers unheated warehouses, freezer docks, and outdoor equipment hookups in cold climates. The housing is nylon, so it resists impact and wear rather than cracking under knocks. It needs an enclosure or cover suited to the location for wet or damp service; the temperature rating alone does not make it a weatherproof assembly.
5) What is the difference between a flanged outlet and a standard locking receptacle?
A flanged outlet mounts to the surface of a machine, enclosure, or wall box with the flange on the outside of the panel, so the mating locking cord cap twists on from outside the equipment. A standard receptacle sits in a device box behind a wallplate. Pick the flanged version when you are powering a machine, portable equipment, or a cord drop and you want the connection made and broken at the equipment itself. The Cooper CWL is two-pole, three-wire, so it carries two current-carrying conductors plus an equipment ground.
6) Is this the right device for a 277 volt lighting circuit in a commercial building?
The CWL715P is the 277 volt, 15A version and suits 277 volt circuits such as commercial lighting branch circuits and equipment fed from a 480/277 volt system. It is a two-pole, three-wire locking device with back-wired terminals taking #16-12 AWG. Do not substitute the 125 volt CWL515P on a 277 volt circuit.
