Eaton BP700V – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What exactly is the Eaton BP700V, and what does "polarized" mean for the connection?
The BP700V is a polarized socket adapter, an Eaton wiring device accessory that adapts a plug to a socket while keeping the hot and neutral legs oriented correctly. Polarized means one blade slot is wider than the other, so a polarized two-prong plug can only go in one way and the neutral side of the connected device stays on the neutral conductor. It is an adapter, not a receptacle you wire into a box, so it changes the connection at the point of use without any rewiring of the existing outlet or the device cord.
2) Will the Eaton BP700V adapter ground my equipment or give me a three-prong outlet?
No. The BP700V is a polarized adapter only, so it maintains hot/neutral orientation but adds no equipment grounding conductor. Anything that requires a ground, a three-prong cord cap, or a GFCI-protected supply needs a properly wired grounding-type receptacle instead, not an adapter. Use the BP700V where the device itself is polarized two-wire and the only issue is plug-to-socket orientation.
3) What part number do I give my supplier for the Eaton polarized socket adapter?
Order it as Eaton BP700V. That is the manufacturer part number and the only model on the product, so there are no finish, amperage, or color options to specify when you place the order.
4) Is a polarized socket adapter like the BP700V acceptable as a permanent fix in a rental unit?
Treat the BP700V as a point-of-use accessory, not a replacement for correct wiring. Property maintenance and MRO teams keep polarized adapters on hand so a polarized cord cap can be used on an older non-polarized socket without modifying the equipment, which is exactly what Eaton describes it for. If the underlying outlet is miswired, reverse-polarity, or ungrounded, the long-term repair is at the device box, and the adapter does not correct it.
5) Where does a polarized socket adapter actually get used on a job?
Common uses are maintaining correct polarity at a point-of-use connection on residential, commercial, and light industrial work, and stocking electrician and facility maintenance kits so a crew can match a polarized plug to an existing socket on the spot. It is the kind of item that lives in a supply room bin alongside other Eaton wiring device accessories rather than being specified on a drawing.
