Eaton BROWN – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a NEMA 1-15P plug work if my cord has a ground wire?
No. The Eaton brown straight blade plug is a 2-pole, 2-wire non-grounding device, so there is no terminal for an equipment ground conductor. If the cord or equipment has a green ground wire, you need a 3-wire grounding plug in the NEMA 5-15P pattern instead. Use this one only on two-conductor cord sets, lamps, and legacy fixtures that never had a ground.
2) What wire gauge does the Eaton brown 15A plug accept?
It terminates #18-16 AWG conductors, which covers the lamp cord and light-duty extension cord sizes used on most residential cord sets. Heavier 14 AWG cord will not land properly in these terminals, so for a 14 AWG assembly choose a plug rated for that range.
3) Can I use this plug on a 20-amp circuit or a 240V appliance?
The plug is rated 15A at 125V only. It can be plugged into a 20A, 125V residential receptacle because the blade pattern is the standard NEMA 1-15P, but the cord assembly itself can only carry up to 15A. It is not suitable for anything at 240V, and it is not a 20A plug.
4) Does this plug use screw terminals or push-in back wire?
Both. The termination is back wire/screw, so you can land the conductor under the terminal screw or back-wire it, whichever is quicker on the bench or in the field. That makes it workable for building new cord sets and for cutting off and replacing a damaged plug on existing equipment.
5) Is this plug rated for commercial or industrial use?
It is a residential-grade device, built for household cord sets, lamps, small appliances, and DIY repair work. For high-cycle commercial or industrial cord caps, specify a commercial or industrial grade plug rather than this one.
6) Can I use this as a replacement plug on an old two-prong lamp or appliance cord?
That is one of its main uses. Because it is non-grounding and takes #18-16 AWG, it drops straight onto the two-conductor cord found on lamps, radios, and older small appliances. Cut back the damaged end, strip the two conductors, and terminate either back-wire or under the screws.
7) What is the Eaton brown plug made of, and will it stand up to being unplugged repeatedly?
The housing is molded thermoplastic with brass contacts at the blade interface, and there is thermoplastic rubber detailing at the cord entry that acts as strain relief where the cord flexes most. That is the part that usually fails first on a cheap plug.
8) I need to match the cord color on brown lamp cord. Does Eaton make this plug in brown?
Brown is the color of this one, which blends with brown lamp and appliance cord rather than standing out the way a white or black cap would. Model designation is simply BROWN.
