Pass & Seymour CS-8464C TurnLok California Style Locking Device, 50A 480V
The Pass & Seymour CS-8464C TurnLok is a California Style 2-Pole 3-Wire locking device rated 50A at 480V, available in the field as either a Connector or a Plug to complete a secure temporary power circuit. Both configurations share the same quarter-twist back-body assembly that eliminates time-consuming threading, a durable nylon 66 shell, and industrial-strength brass alloy contacts. Backed by cULus Listing and RoHS Compliance, the TurnLok device is engineered for demanding industrial and construction power applications where fast, dependable connections matter.
Key Features
- Rated Performance: 50A, 480V, 2-Pole 3-Wire California Style locking configuration for demanding temporary power circuits, available as a Connector or Plug.
- Durable Construction: Impact- and corrosion-resistant nylon 66 shell material withstands harsh jobsite environments.
- Quarter-Twist Lock Body: The back body easily slides onto the device and locks in place with a simple quarter twist, eliminating time-consuming threading for faster, safer installation.
- Visible Cord Retention: Newly designed external cord grips provide visible assurance of safe and proper cord retention.
- Same-Plane Hex Head Terminations: All termination screws sit on the same plane for faster, safer installations with more torque and reduced risk of screwdriver slips.
- Molded Identification: Visible molded NEMA configuration and device rating for quick field identification on either the Connector or Plug version.
- Adjustable Cord Clamp: Located outside the back body with same-plane clamp screws and included longer screws to accommodate a wider range of cord and cable sizes.
- Industrial-Strength Contacts: Brass alloy plug blades and connector contacts resist heat rise and provide excellent conductivity.
- Sealed Cord Entry: Integral flexible rubber cord grommet conforms to and seals around SO cord, protecting against oils, water or chips entering the wiring chamber.

Pass & Seymour CS8465C – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a CS8464C California Style connector mate with a standard NEMA L-series twist-lock plug?
No. California Style (CS) devices use their own blade pattern and will not intermate with NEMA L-series twist-lock devices, even at the same amperage. The CS8464C connector mates with CS-series 50A 480V 2-Pole 3-Wire plugs such as the CS8465C. If the equipment end on your cord is an L-series plug, you need a matching L-series connector instead.
2) What should I use instead of the Pass & Seymour CS-8464C when the locking device has to mount in a panel or box rather than on a cord?
The Pass & Seymour CS-8464C TurnLok is a cord-mounted California Style device, supplied as either a connector or a plug, with an adjustable external cord clamp and a rubber grommet that seals around SO cord. For a fixed-in-place outlet you want a flush mounting device instead, such as the Leviton 2730 industrial grade flush mounting locking device, which installs into the enclosure rather than terminating a flexible cord. Confirm the amperage, voltage and NEMA configuration of the flush device match the cord set you are plugging into before ordering.
3) Can these TurnLok devices handle wet, oily jobsite conditions on temporary power?
The housing is nylon 66, impact and corrosion resistant, and an integral flexible rubber grommet seals around SO cord to keep oils, water and chips out of the wiring chamber. That is the construction intended for jobsite temporary power and portable equipment hookups. It is a cord-connected device, not a weatherproof enclosure, so a wet-location installation still needs the appropriate boot or enclosure around it.
4) Will the cord clamp on the CS8464C fit large 6 AWG portable cord?
The cord clamp sits outside the back body and is adjustable, with same-plane clamp screws and longer screws included so it accommodates a wider range of cord and cable sizes. The external grips also give you a visible check that the cord is properly retained. Match your cord OD to the clamp range on the manufacturer spec sheet before terminating a heavy 50A cord.
5) Is the Leviton 2730 a direct replacement for a Pass & Seymour CS-8464C on a temporary power cord assembly?
No. The CS-8464C TurnLok is a 50A 480V 2-pole 3-wire California Style device built for cord termination, with a quarter-twist back body, brass alloy contacts and a nylon shell. The Leviton 2730 is an industrial grade flush mounting locking device, so it is intended to be mounted into a box or panel face rather than wired onto the end of a portable cord. Use the TurnLok connector or plug for the cord end and reserve a flush device for the fixed outlet side of the circuit.
6) For a harsh industrial environment, how does the Pass & Seymour CS-8464C construction compare with the Leviton 2730?
The Pass & Seymour CS-8464C TurnLok uses an impact- and corrosion-resistant nylon 66 shell with an integral flexible rubber cord grommet that seals around SO cord to keep oils, water and chips out of the wiring chamber, and it is cULus Listed and RoHS compliant. The Leviton 2730 is an industrial grade flush mounting device described as impact- and chemical-resistant. The practical difference is mounting style: the TurnLok protects a cord termination in the field, while the 2730 serves a fixed mounting point.
7) How fast is the TurnLok back body to assemble compared with a threaded cord cap?
The back body slides onto the device and locks with a quarter twist, so there is no threading to run down. All termination screws are hex head and sit on the same plane, which lets you apply more torque with less chance of the driver slipping. For a crew building several cord sets in the field, that is the main time difference against a conventional threaded body.
8) What color are the Pass & Seymour CS8464C and CS8465C, and can I identify the rating in the field?
Both are black nylon, with the NEMA configuration and device rating molded into the shell so a tech can read what he is holding without pulling a spec sheet. Useful when a jobsite has several amperage and voltage combinations in the same cord pile.
