Pass & Seymour L1630-C – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is this a female connector or a male plug?
It is the female connector, the cord-mounted body that accepts a matching L16-30 plug or receptacle pin pattern. It terminates on the end of a cord, not on a box. If you need the male end for the other end of that cord, you want the matching L16-30 plug rather than this connector.
2) What are my alternatives if I need a 30A locking connector in a different NEMA configuration?
The L16-30 pattern here is 3-phase 480V. For single-phase 250V 30A work, the Eaton Arrow Hart Ultra Grip locking connector in L6-30 covers that, and Leviton's industrial grade 2-pole 3-wire 250V 30A connector is another. For 125V 30A, the Leviton 3-wire 2-pole industrial grade L5-30 connector is the match. None of those will mate with an L16-30 plug, so pick by the configuration already in the field.
3) What is the difference between the Pass & Seymour L1630C and the Leviton 2443 locking connector?
The Pass & Seymour L1630C is a 30A NEMA L16-30 configuration connector, which is a three-pole four-wire 480V-class device. The Leviton 2443 is an industrial grade locking connector in a two-pole three-wire 250V 30A configuration. Both are 30 amp locking connectors, but the pole and wire counts are different, so they are not interchangeable - the L16-30 blade pattern will not mate with a two-pole three-wire L6-30 body. Confirm the NEMA configuration stamped on the existing plug before ordering.
4) I need a 30A locking connector for a 250V two-pole circuit, not L16-30. What should I use instead?
The Pass & Seymour L1630C is built for the NEMA L16-30 configuration, so it is the wrong device for a two-pole 250V cord. For that application the Eaton Arrow Hart Ultra Grip locking connector in the L6-30 series is a 30A two-pole three-wire nylon connector, and the Leviton 2443 is an industrial grade two-pole three-wire 250V 30A connector. Either matches a standard L6-30 cord cap pattern.
5) What looks like a substitute for the L1630C but is not?
Any 30 amp locking connector in a different NEMA pattern. The Leviton 2313 at 125V 30A L5-30 and the Leviton 2443 at 250V 30A two-pole three-wire both carry the same 30 amp rating as the L1630C, but neither matches the L16-30 three-pole four-wire pattern the L1630C is built for. Amperage alone is not enough to confirm a match; the NEMA configuration has to agree.
6) Is this connector rated for outdoor or wet jobsite use?
The body is nylon 6 with an integral flexible rubber cord grommet that seals around SO cord to keep oils, water, and debris out of the wiring chamber, which is why it gets used on construction site power distribution and portable generator hookups. It is not a weatherproof enclosure on its own, so for a permanently exposed location it still belongs inside a weatherproof cover or box.
7) How does this connector hold up to cord pull-out on portable equipment?
Two things handle strain here: a double dovetail design in the shell halves for pull-out resistance, plus external cord grips that let you see the cord is actually clamped. The scallop shell and raised ribs give you grip surface for tightening by hand, and the rounded back reduces snagging when the cord gets dragged around. For trailing cords on generators and temporary power that is the detail that matters more than the amp rating.
8) What size is this connector body, and will it fit in a tight equipment bay?
The L1630C body measures 3.33 inches long by 2.2 inches wide, in black. Allow clearance beyond that for the cord bend and for rotating the body to lock it.
9) Is the Pass & Seymour L1630C industrial grade or just commercial?
It is built on the industrial side: brass alloy contacts to resist heat rise, an impact-resistant nylon 6 shell, and cULus Listing. If you are standardizing a facility on one declared grade, Leviton's industrial grade locking connectors and Eaton's extra heavy-duty industrial specification grade L1-15 are the peers that state a grade outright.
10) What part number do I order for a Pass & Seymour 30A L16-30 connector?
Order Pass & Seymour L1630-C. It ships as a single black connector body, made in Mexico, and there are no finish or color options to specify.
