Pass & Seymour D0651 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Pass & Seymour D0651 Gator Grip plug work on a 250V single-phase welder or machine cord?
Yes, within its rating. The D0651 is a 2-pole, 3-wire grounding plug rated 50A at 250V, which is the usual configuration for single-phase 240V equipment cords like welders, large portable machinery, and temporary power pigtails. Two current-carrying poles plus an equipment ground means it is for single-phase use, not three-phase. Match the plug to the receptacle configuration already on the circuit before terminating.
2) Do I need tools or a separate cord clamp to terminate the Gator Grip plug?
No separate clamp assembly. The Gator Grip's nylon jaws close down on the cord jacket as you hand-turn the housing, and they tighten further under pull without cutting into the insulation. You still need a screwdriver for the oversized terminal screws: strip the stranded conductors, drop them into the individual wiring chambers, and tighten. A self-locking Dardelet thread keeps the clamping pressure consistent once assembled.
3) Is this the right plug for a standard 125V tool cord or hospital equipment?
No. The D0651 is a 50A 250V, 2-pole 3-wire device, far larger than a 15A or 20A 125V cord cap and not a hospital grade part. For 125V tool cords, the Eaton Arrow Hart Ultra Grip straight blade plug is a 15A 125V industrial grade option. For patient-care equipment, use a hospital grade cap such as the Bryant 8266T (NEMA 5-15P) or Leviton 8315-CT (NEMA 5-20P, tamper-resistant).
4) What is the closest equivalent to the Pass & Seymour D0651 Gator Grip plug for a 50A cord set?
The Bryant 7516NC is the nearest peer for a 50-amp cord end. It is a rubber electrical plug in the NM10-50P series, so it is built around the 50-amp 10-50 blade pattern. The Pass & Seymour D0651 is a 2-pole 3-wire grounding plug rated 50A 250V with self-tightening nylon Gator Grip jaws, a transparent wiring chamber cover, and cULus Listing. The practical difference is construction and configuration: the Bryant is a rubber-bodied 10-50P device, while the D0651 uses a hard yellow housing with a Dardelet self-locking thread and a neoprene dust seal. Confirm the receptacle blade pattern in the field before choosing between them.
5) I need a 250V 2-pole 3-wire plug but not at 50 amps. What else should I look at?
The Leviton 5666-C is a 3-wire 2-pole polarized industrial grade straight blade plug for 250-volt single-phase service, which keeps the same 2-pole 3-wire 250V arrangement in an industrial grade device at a lighter blade rating than the Pass & Seymour D0651's 50A 250V configuration. Use the Leviton where the branch circuit and cord are sized below 50 amps, and stay with the D0651 where the cord set actually needs a 50-amp termination.
6) Will the Pass & Seymour D0651 work on a 3-phase four-wire cord?
No. The D0651 is a 2-pole 3-wire grounding plug, so it terminates two current-carrying conductors plus a ground. For a four-conductor cord you need a 4-wire device such as the Leviton 275-E, a commercial grade 4-wire 3-pole straight blade angle plug. The 275-E is also an angle body rather than a straight-back housing, which matters where the cord has to lay flat against a wall or machine panel.
7) Can I use the D0651 Gator Grip plug on patient-care equipment in a hospital?
No. Hospital patient-care cord sets require a hospital grade plug, and the D0651 is a general commercial and industrial 50A 250V grounding plug rather than a hospital grade device. For that work the hospital grade peers apply: Bryant 8266T in NEMA 5-15P, Bryant 8395T as an angle body in NEMA 5-20P, Bryant 8666TSP as a watertight N6-15P, and Leviton 8215-CAT (NEMA 5-15P) and 8315-CT (NEMA 5-20P), both tamper-resistant hospital grade. Match the configuration to the receptacle on the wall.
8) Is the Pass & Seymour D0651 plug UL listed for commercial and industrial use?
The D0651 carries a cULus Listing, which covers it for both the US and Canada. It also uses dead front construction, so no live parts are exposed on the face once assembled. That combination is what most commercial and institutional specs ask for on field-wired cord caps.
9) Can I verify the wiring is correct before closing up this 50A plug?
Yes. The wiring chamber cover on the Gator Grip plug is transparent, so you can see each conductor seated in its chamber before the housing goes together. That matters on a 50A 250V cord cap where a loose or crossed conductor is a callback. A neoprene dust seal keeps debris out of the chamber once it is closed.
10) What is the Pass & Seymour part number for the yellow 50A 250V Gator Grip plug?
Order it as Pass & Seymour D0651. That is the 2-pole 3-wire grounding, 50A 250V Gator Grip plug in yellow, made in Mexico. One part number covers the whole item, with no finish or configuration suffix to specify.
11) What else could I use instead of the D0651 for a 50A 250V cord set?
The closest alternative in the same current class is the Bryant 7516NC, an NM10-50P series rubber plug. Rubber-bodied plugs take abuse and drops differently than the nylon Gator Grip housing, so the choice usually comes down to whether you want the self-tightening jaw cord grip or a molded rubber body. If your equipment needs four wires rather than three, the Leviton 275-E is a 4-wire 3-pole straight blade angle plug.
12) Will the Gator Grip jaws damage the cord jacket if the cord gets yanked?
The jaws are designed to grip harder under strain rather than cut. They are nylon and close around the jacket as the housing is hand-tightened, so pull on the cord increases the clamping force without slicing insulation. The housing also has sloped shoulders so it does not catch or snap when a cord is dragged, and automatic cord centering keeps the jacket aligned in the grip.
13) Is the Eaton Arrow Hart AH5266 Ultra Grip plug a substitute for the Pass & Seymour D0651?
They are not interchangeable. The Eaton Arrow Hart Ultra Grip is a straight blade plug rated 15A 125V in industrial specification grade, so it is a 125-volt light-duty cord end. The D0651 is a 2-pole 3-wire grounding plug rated 50A 250V. Both use a clamping cord grip - the Eaton its Ultra Grip body, the Pass & Seymour its self-tightening nylon Gator Grip jaws - but the voltage and amperage ratings and the blade pattern do not cross over.
14) I need a straight blade plug that holds up to washdown or wet conditions. Does the D0651 cover that?
The D0651 has a neoprene dust seal to keep dirt out of the wiring chamber, which addresses debris rather than water immersion or washdown. Where a sealed device is the requirement, the Bryant 8666TSP is a watertight hospital grade plug in the N6-15P configuration. Note that the Bryant is a 6-15P device, so it is not a drop-in for a 50-amp 250V cord set; size the cord and circuit to whichever plug you select.
15) Which plug should I spec where the cord has to exit at an angle instead of straight back?
The D0651 is a straight-body plug with sloped shoulders so the housing will not catch during handling, but the cord exits in line with the body. For an angled cord exit, the Leviton 275-E is a 4-wire 3-pole commercial grade straight blade angle plug and the Bryant 8395T is an angle hospital grade plug in NEMA 5-20P. Both are different pole and wire arrangements from the D0651's 2-pole 3-wire 50A 250V configuration, so the angle body choice has to be matched to the circuit, not just the cord routing.
16) Why is this plug yellow, and can I get the Gator Grip 50A plug in another color?
Yellow is the color on the D0651, a high-visibility housing meant to be spotted fast on a jobsite or in a cord pile. The D0651 is a single model, so the yellow body is what you get; it is not offered in an alternate color under this part number. Many contractors use the color to flag which cords are 250V so crews do not reach for the wrong one.
17) Is the D0651 Gator Grip plug sold individually or in a box?
The D0651 is packaged 10 each, so it comes as a box of ten plugs rather than a single cap. That suits a fleet or MRO stock order where you are building or repairing multiple 50A cord sets. If you only need one plug, the pack quantity is worth factoring in.
18) We keep breaking plugs on temporary power cords. Is there a tamper-resistant option, and does the D0651 offer it?
The D0651 is not a tamper-resistant device; its features are the self-tightening Gator Grip jaws, the Dardelet self-locking thread, the transparent wiring chamber cover, and dead front construction, with a high-visibility yellow housing for fast identification on a jobsite. If tamper resistance is the requirement, the Leviton 8215-CAT in NEMA 5-15P and the Leviton 8315-CT in NEMA 5-20P are tamper-resistant hospital grade plugs - both 125-volt configurations, so they serve a different circuit than a 50A 250V cord set.
