Hubbell Wiring HBL5969VBLK – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Hubbell HBL5969VBLK a plug or a connector, and which end of the cord does it go on?
The HBL5969VBLK is a connector, which is the female end of a cordset. It takes the load end of a flexible cord and mates with a matching 125V 15A straight blade plug. If you need the male end that goes into a receptacle, you want a plug instead, not this part.
2) Will the HBL5969VBLK work on a standard 15 amp 125 volt extension cord build?
Yes. It is rated 125 volts, 15 amps with a 3-wire, 2-pole polarized straight blade configuration, which is the standard grounded 15A/125V cordset arrangement. It is a field-wired device, so it is meant to be assembled onto flexible cord rather than molded on.
3) Can I use the HBL5969VBLK on a 20 amp or 250 volt circuit?
No. It is rated 125 volts, 15 amps only. A 20A or 250V cordset needs a device with that blade configuration and rating; using this one outside its rating is not code compliant.
4) Can an Ocal ST34-G straight connector be used in place of the Hubbell HBL5969VBLK?
No - the two are different classes of device despite both being called straight connectors. The Hubbell HBL5969VBLK is a 3-wire, 2-pole polarized straight blade cord connector rated 125V 15A, wired onto the end of a flexible cord so it can mate with a matching plug on a cordset or portable equipment. The Ocal ST34-G is a PVC-coated steel non-grounding liquidtight straight connector in 3/4-inch trade size, used to terminate liquidtight flexible conduit into an enclosure. One carries a plug-in power connection, the other is a raceway fitting; neither substitutes for the other on the same job.
5) Does the HBL5969VBLK give me a ground path for portable equipment?
It does. The 3-wire, 2-pole design carries hot, neutral and equipment ground, so portable tools and equipment cords land a proper grounding conductor. A 2-wire ungrounded connector would not.
6) What exact part number should I order for the black Hubbell Valise 15A connector?
Order Hubbell Wiring HBL5969VBLK. That is the black Valise series 3-wire, 2-pole straight blade connector rated 125V 15A. There is one configuration under that number, so no suffix or handing to specify.
7) Does the polarized blade pattern stop someone from mating it to the wrong plug?
The straight blade pattern is keyed, so it only seats with a matching 125V 15A plug and lands hot and neutral in the correct orientation. That is what keeps a reversed-polarity connection from being made in the field.
8) I need a straight connector for liquidtight flexible conduit, not a cord - what should I order instead of the HBL5969VBLK?
Order a conduit fitting rather than a wiring device. The Hubbell HBL5969VBLK is a field-wired straight blade cord connector for portable cordsets and equipment power cords at 125V 15A, so it will not terminate conduit. For liquidtight flexible conduit, the Ocal ST34-G is a PVC-coated steel non-grounding liquidtight straight connector in 3/4-inch, and the Ocal ST145-G is another PVC-coated liquidtight flexible conduit connector in the same OCAL series if your run calls for a different size.
9) Why does the black housing matter when I'm standardizing cords across a facility?
Color is purely identification here. Crews use the black housing to flag which cordsets are on a given circuit, voltage class or department, which helps MRO stores keep stock straight. The electrical rating is unchanged by the color.
