Intermatic K121 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Intermatic K121 receptacle accept any standard locking-type photocontrol?
The K121 is the NEMA 3-pin connector interface for locking type photocontrols and is built to ANSI C136.10, so any photocontrol with the standard 3-pin twist-lock base built to that same standard will seat and lock into it. That is the shared standard street and area lighting photocells are made to, so you are not tied to one photocontrol brand.
2) Does the K121 photocontrol receptacle come with wire leads, or do I have to splice to bare terminals?
Leads are already on it. The K121 ships with a 9 inch lead, so you make up your connections in the fixture housing or pole handhole with wire nuts or crimps rather than landing wires on screw terminals inside the receptacle. Nine inches is short, so plan the splice point close to the mounting hole.
3) Does the K121 include the photocontrol itself?
No. The K121 is only the receptacle, the socket half that the photocontrol twists into. The locking type photocell is a separate order, and so is any gasket or cover plate your fixture opening requires.
4) What is the difference between a 3-pin locking receptacle like the K121 and a 5-pin or 7-pin shorting-cap receptacle?
The K121 is the 3-pin version: two pins for line and neutral, one for the switched load to the lamp. That covers straight dusk-to-dawn photocontrol switching. Five and seven pin receptacles add dimming and control-signal pins for 0-10V drivers and networked lighting nodes. If the job is only on/off photocontrol of a street, parking lot, or area light, the 3-pin K121 is the right interface; if the spec calls for dimming or a networked control node, you need the higher pin count, not this one.
5) Is the Intermatic K121 suitable for outdoor pole and area lighting fixtures?
Yes, that is its intended service. It is used in street and area lighting, commercial parking lot lighting, industrial facility lighting, and municipal lighting projects, with the locking twist connection holding the photocontrol against vibration on poles and masts. It mounts into the fixture or housing and the photocell sits outside.
6) How much height do I need behind the mounting hole for an Intermatic K121?
The K121 measures 1.52 inches in height, so allow at least that much clearance inside the fixture housing or junction box behind the opening, plus room for the 9 inch lead to be folded back to your splice.
7) What color is the K121 receptacle, and will it look out of place on a fixture?
Black. It is meant to disappear against dark bronze and black outdoor lighting housings, which is what most pole heads and shoebox fixtures are finished in.
