Eaton 4227-BOX – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What plug does the Eaton 4227-BOX connector mate with?
The 4227-BOX is a 6-15R connector body, so it accepts a NEMA 6-15P plug: two flat blades plus a ground pin, two-pole three-wire grounding at 15A 250V. It will not take a 5-15P 125V plug, and it will not accept a 6-20P plug with the T-shaped neutral blade.
2) What wire size can I land in this Eaton Arrow Hart 15A 250V connector?
Terminals accept #18 through #12 AWG conductors, which covers 16/3 and 14/3 SJ or SJO cord as well as 12 AWG for a full-rated 15A run. Termination is back wire with screws, so strip, insert, and tighten, no crimp or ferrule needed.
3) Can I use the 4227-BOX for a 240V single-phase piece of equipment?
Yes. At 250V with a two-pole three-wire grounding 6-15R pattern, it is wired hot, hot, ground for a 240V single-phase load drawing up to 15A. There is no neutral conductor in this configuration, so equipment needing 120/240V with a neutral requires a different device.
4) Is this a cord-end connector or a wall receptacle?
It is a straight blade connector body, meaning it goes on the end of a flexible cord to receive a plug. It is not a wall-mounted receptacle and has no yoke or strap for a device box. Use it for cord sets, extension cord assembly, or replacing a damaged female end.
5) Is the Eaton 4227-BOX commercial grade or residential grade?
Commercial grade, with brass contacts and a thermoplastic housing. That is the tier to standardize on for shop tools, maintenance carts, and equipment cords that get plugged and unplugged daily. For heavier abuse or wet-location drops you would step up to an industrial-grade device instead.
6) Why is this Eaton connector yellow, and does the color mean anything electrically?
The yellow thermoplastic body is for visibility on cords and equipment, not a code-mandated voltage marking. Crews often use it to flag a 250V cord end so nobody tries to plug it into 120V gear. The electrical identity comes from the 6-15R blade pattern, not the color.
7) What is the exact part number to order this Eaton Arrow Hart 6-15R connector?
Eaton Arrow Hart part number 4227-BOX. One model covers the whole offering, so there is no finish or amperage choice to specify: it ships as the yellow 15A 250V 6-15R connector body.
