Leviton 5-Wire 4-Pole Industrial Grade Locking Connector, 20A

The Leviton 5-Wire 4-Pole Industrial Grade Locking Connector is a heavy-duty, non-NEMA locking device engineered for demanding industrial and commercial power connections. Rated at 20A, this Industrial Grade connector delivers a secure, twist-lock mating connection that resists accidental disengagement in high-vibration, high-traffic, or frequently disconnected environments. Built for 5-wire, 4-pole applications, it is well suited for equipment requiring multiple current-carrying and grounding conductors routed through a single, rugged connector body. Leviton engineers this connector to withstand the rigors of everyday industrial handling while maintaining consistent, dependable contact integrity over repeated connect and disconnect cycles.

Leviton 2323 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Leviton 2323 locking connector a standard NEMA twist-lock like an L14-20?
No. The Leviton 5-wire, 4-pole 20A locking connector is a non-NEMA device, so it will not mate with standard NEMA twist-lock plugs and inlets. It uses a non-NEMA pin-and-sleeve style body for specialized industrial power distribution. If you need a standard NEMA configuration, the Eaton Arrow Hart Ultra-Grip Locking Connector in NEMA L14-20, 20A 125/250V, is the NEMA-configured alternative.
2) How many conductors does the Leviton 20A locking connector accept?
It is a 5-wire, 4-pole device, which gives you four current-carrying poles plus a separate ground path through one connector body. That is the configuration you want on equipment needing distinct line, neutral and ground conductors, such as 3-phase machinery hookups. A 2-pole 3-wire device like the Eaton Arrow Hart Ultra Grip L6-30 connector will not serve that circuit.
3) Is this Leviton connector rated for more than 20 amps?
No. The rating is 20A, and that is the ceiling for continuous load on the circuit. For a 30A locking connection you need a different device, such as the Eaton Arrow Hart Ultra Grip 30A two-pole three-wire nylon connector, though note that one is a two-pole device rather than 4-pole.
4) What is a NEMA-configured alternative if the equipment cord needs a standard L14-20 twist-lock instead of a non-NEMA 5-wire connector?
The Leviton 2323 family is a 5-wire, 4-pole industrial grade locking connector built in a non-NEMA configuration, so it will not mate with a standard NEMA-pattern cord cap. When the cord end on the equipment is a standard NEMA L14-20, use the Eaton Arrow Hart Ultra-Grip locking connector, which is a NEMA L14-20 device rated 20A at 125/250V and built to commercial grade. Confirm the blade pattern on the mating plug before ordering either one, since non-NEMA and NEMA patterns are deliberately non-interchangeable.
5) What locking connector should I use if the circuit is 30A rather than 20A?
The Leviton 2323 group is rated 20A, so it should not be applied to a 30A branch circuit. For a 30A two-pole three-wire circuit, the Eaton Arrow Hart Ultra Grip locking connector in the L6-30 series is a nylon-bodied 30A device. Note the conductor count differs sharply: the Leviton is a 5-wire, 4-pole device for circuits needing separate line, neutral and ground paths, while the L6-30 is two-pole three-wire, so match the conductor requirement as well as the amperage.
6) Can a Bryant 71020NC be used in place of the Leviton 2323 locking connector?
Not as a direct swap. The Bryant 71020NC is a 7 Series non-metallic NEMA locking connector, meaning it uses a standard NEMA blade pattern in a non-metallic body. The Leviton 2323 group is a non-NEMA, 5-wire 4-pole industrial grade device, so the two will not mate with the same plug. The Bryant is the right direction when the existing cord cap on the equipment is a NEMA pattern and a non-metallic housing is preferred; the Leviton is for specialized multi-conductor industrial distribution outside standard NEMA configurations.
7) Which Leviton model numbers are covered by this 20A 4-pole locking connector?
Four models: 2323, 2433, 2523 and 7314-C. Order by the specific model number, since they are separate catalog devices under the same 20A locking connector family.
8) Is this connector tough enough for daily plugging and unplugging on a job site?
It is built to Industrial Grade, not residential or commercial grade, and the twist-lock engagement is intended for repeated mating and unmating in industrial power distribution, portable equipment hookups and temporary power. The locking action also resists accidental disengagement where there is vibration or cord traffic.
9) Can I use this Leviton locking connector on a generator or temporary power setup?
Yes, generator and backup power connections and temporary jobsite or event power are listed applications, along with industrial and commercial power distribution and heavy-duty equipment wiring. The one thing to confirm first is the mating device: because this is a non-NEMA configuration, the plug or inlet on the generator has to match the same non-NEMA pattern.
10) What is the difference between this Leviton connector and a Bryant non-metallic locking connector?
The Leviton is a non-NEMA, 5-wire 4-pole, 20A Industrial Grade twist-lock. The Bryant 71020NC from the 7 Series is a NEMA-configured non-metallic locking connector, so it follows a standard NEMA pattern rather than the specialized non-NEMA one. If your existing devices are NEMA, the Bryant side of the shelf is where you should be looking.
11) Is there another industrial grade locking connector if I need a lower-amperage single-phase device?
Yes. The Leviton 2323 series is an industrial grade locking connector rated 20A in a 5-wire, 4-pole configuration. For a smaller single-phase application, the Eaton L1-15 locking connector in black is built to extra heavy-duty industrial specification grade, a step above standard industrial grade in Eaton's own designation. The L1-15 pattern carries far fewer conductors than the Leviton 5-wire body, so it suits simple equipment cords rather than multi-conductor power distribution.
12) I am standardizing a plant on one locking connector line. How do the Bryant 705 Series and the Leviton 2323 family differ?
The Bryant 70520NCC is a locking connector in the 705 Series. The Leviton offering covers four models sold under one industrial grade family: the 2323, 2433, 2523 and 7314-C, all 20A locking connectors with a non-NEMA 5-wire 4-pole construction for circuits carrying separate line, neutral and ground paths. If your standardization goal is multiple conductor counts and configurations under a single Leviton industrial grade line, the four-model Leviton family covers that; if the plant is already on Bryant series numbering, the 705 Series connector keeps that continuity.
13) Is a locking connector the right choice, or should I use a straight-blade device?
Go locking where a dropped connection causes a problem: machinery under vibration, portable equipment dragged around a floor, temporary distribution where cords get kicked. The twist-lock body physically holds the mating device until you rotate it free. Straight blade is only sensible for light, stationary loads. This Leviton device is a locking connection type in Industrial Grade.
