Pass & Seymour L1630P 30A NEMA L1630 Locking Plug, Nylon Body

The Pass & Seymour L1630P is a 30A NEMA L1630 locking plug built with a black back and white front nylon 6 shell for durable, impact- and corrosion-resistant performance. Industrial-strength brass alloy plug blades and connector contacts resist heat rise and provide excellent conductivity, while the integral flexible rubber cord grommet seals around SO cord to protect the wiring chamber from oils, water, or chips. This NEMA L1630 configuration plug is cULus Listed, making it a dependable choice for demanding power connection applications.

Key Features

  • Durable Construction: Impact- and corrosion-resistant nylon 6 shell material stands up to rugged job site use.
  • Conductive Contacts: Industrial-strength brass alloy plug blades and connector contacts resist heat rise and provide excellent conductivity.
  • Cord Protection: Integral flexible rubber cord grommet conforms to and seals around SO cord, protecting against oils, water, or chips entering the wiring chamber.
  • Ready-to-Wire Design: Quick-thread assembly screws and cord-grip screws come backed-out and ready-to-wire for faster installation.
  • Visible Cord Retention: New-design external cord grips provide visible assurance of safe and proper cord retention.
  • Non-Slip Grip: Raised ribs and a scallop shell design provide a non-slip gripping profile for turning to lock and unlock, plus easy insertion and withdrawal.
  • Job Site Durability: Rounded back contour reduces snags and hang-ups, while the double dovetail design provides superior protection against cord pull-out forces.
  • Configuration Marking: Visible stamped NEMA L1630 configuration and device rating for quick identification in the field.

Pass & Seymour L1630-P – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the L1630P plug accept SO cord without a separate cord grip or strain relief?
No separate strain relief is needed. The L1630P has an integral flexible rubber grommet that conforms to and seals around SO cord, keeping oils, water and chips out of the wiring chamber, plus external cord grips and a double dovetail design that resists cord pull-out. The cord-grip screws and assembly screws ship backed out, so it is ready to wire as it comes out of the box.
2) Can I use the L1630P on a patient care circuit in a hospital?
No. The L1630P is an industrial locking plug and is not a hospital grade device. For patient care areas you need a green dot hospital grade plug matched to the receptacle configuration, such as the Bryant 8266T in NEMA 5-15P, the Bryant 8395T angle plug in NEMA 5-20P, or the watertight Bryant 8666TSP in 6-15P. Leviton's tamper-resistant 8215-CAT (5-15P) and 8315-CT (5-20P) are hospital grade as well.
3) Will a Leviton 275-E straight blade angle plug work in place of the Pass & Seymour L1630P?
No. The Pass & Seymour L1630P is a NEMA L1630 locking plug rated 30A, so it twists into a matching L1630 locking receptacle and stays mechanically retained. The Leviton 275-E is a commercial grade 4-wire 3-pole straight blade angle plug, which pushes straight into a straight blade receptacle and has no twist-lock retention. The two blade patterns will not mate with each other, so a straight blade plug is not a substitute on an L1630 circuit.
4) Is this locking plug rated for industrial job site use or just light duty?
The L1630P is built for industrial and commercial power distribution, portable cord and cable assemblies, and construction site power. The shell is nylon 6, which is impact and corrosion resistant, and the blades and contacts are brass alloy chosen to resist heat rise at full load. The rounded back contour cuts down on snags when the cord is dragged around a site.
5) Is the Pass & Seymour L1630P UL listed for use in Canada as well as the US?
It is cULus Listed, which covers both the US and Canadian listings on the same device, so it can be specified for work on either side of the border. It is made in Mexico.
6) What is the difference between a locking plug like this and a straight blade plug?
A twist-locking plug such as the L1630P turns into the receptacle so vibration or a tug on the cord will not drop the connection, which is why it is used on 30A industrial feeds and portable equipment. Straight blade plugs pull straight out and are the right choice for general receptacle work; ZenSupply carries those too, such as the Leviton 5666-C 3-wire 2-pole industrial grade straight blade plug and the Eaton Arrow Hart Ultra Grip 15A 125V industrial grade straight blade plug. If the equipment can tolerate an accidental disconnect, straight blade is simpler; if it cannot, stay with locking.
7) We need tamper-resistant plugs for a facility standardization. Does the L1630P come that way?
The Pass & Seymour L1630P is built as an industrial locking plug - nylon 6 shell, brass alloy blades, external cord grips, and cULus Listing - and its retention comes from the twist-lock action rather than a tamper-resistant feature. Where a tamper-resistant hospital-grade device is the standard, the Leviton 8215-CAT is tamper-resistant hospital grade in NEMA 5-15P and the Leviton 8315-CT is tamper-resistant hospital grade in NEMA 5-20P, both supplied in packs of 100 for fleet work. Those are 125V straight blade cord ends, so they cover different receptacles than an L1630 circuit.
8) I need a plug for a wet or washdown location instead of the L1630P. What else is there?
The Pass & Seymour L1630P uses an integral flexible rubber cord grommet that seals around SO cord to keep oils, water, and chips out of the wiring chamber, but it is a general industrial locking plug. Where a watertight device is specified, the Bryant 8666TSP is a watertight hospital-grade plug in the N6-15P configuration. Note that it is a 250V straight blade pattern rather than a 30A twist-lock, so it serves a different receptacle.
9) How big is the L1630P plug body? I need to know if it clears a tight equipment enclosure.
The plug body measures 2.57 in by 2.2 in. Those are the two published body dimensions, and they matter when the receptacle sits recessed in a panel cutout or behind a guard.
10) Is the L1630P easy to grip and turn with gloves on?
Raised ribs and a scallop shell profile give a non-slip surface for twisting to lock and unlock, and the same shaping helps with insertion and withdrawal. The external cord grips are visible from outside the shell, so you can see at a glance that the cord is properly retained rather than taking it apart to check.
