Thomas & Betts 8005 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What amperage and voltage is the Thomas & Betts 8005 EVER-LOK pin and sleeve receptacle rated for?
The 8005 EVER-LOK receptacle is a 30 amp device rated to 600 volts. That voltage rating covers 480Y/277V and 600V three-phase distribution as well as lower-voltage circuits, so it suits industrial feeds where a standard 125/250V locking receptacle would be under-rated.
2) How many poles and wires does the Thomas & Betts 8005 pin and sleeve receptacle have?
Two poles and three conductors, which is the 2P3W configuration: two current-carrying poles plus a ground. Use it for single-phase 2-wire-plus-ground connections. If your cord or feeder is three-phase (3-pole, 4-wire) or needs a separate neutral, this is the wrong configuration and you need a 3P4W or 4P5W pin and sleeve device instead.
3) Does the Thomas & Betts 8005 receptacle come with a mating plug?
No. The 8005 is sold as a receptacle only, priced and shipped each. To complete the connection you need a mating 30A 600V 2-pole 3-wire EVER-LOK plug or connector body, plus whatever back box or enclosure the mounting location calls for.
4) Why use a pin and sleeve receptacle like the 8005 instead of a twist-lock receptacle?
Pin and sleeve devices such as the 8005 EVER-LOK use pins seated in insulated sleeves, so the contacts are shrouded rather than exposed, and the connection is mechanically retained instead of relying on a twist cam. They also go to higher voltages than common locking devices, and the 8005 is rated 600V at 30A. Twist-lock is fine for general 125/250V equipment cords; pin and sleeve is what gets specified for wet, industrial, and heavy-duty service where the plug is cycled hard.
