Pass & Seymour L1630-R – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What wire size can I land on this 30 amp locking receptacle?
The L1630R takes #14 through #10 AWG conductors. You can side wire it or use the external screw-pressure-plate back wire terminals, which is the easier route when you are landing stranded #10 in a crowded box.
2) Will this receptacle hold up in a wash-down commercial kitchen or plant floor?
The body and face are impact-resistant nylon, ultrasonically welded, with one-piece brass contacts and a solid brass mounting strap instead of riveted construction. That is built for industrial and heavy-duty service, but it is not a sealed or explosionproof device. For hazardous or factory-sealed locations use something like the Appleton FSQC Series interlocked explosionproof receptacle or the Appleton U-Line ECS factory-sealed plug and receptacle set.
3) Can a straight-blade industrial receptacle be used in place of the Pass & Seymour L1630R?
No. The L1630R uses the NEMA L1630 locking configuration, so a cord cap must be twisted into place to seat. Straight-blade devices such as the Eaton Arrow Hart heavy-duty industrial duplex at 15A 125V NEMA 5-15R or the Leviton 16352-1PW at 20A 125V NEMA 5-20R accept push-in blades only and will not mate with an L1630 plug. Match the receptacle configuration to the plug on the equipment cord.
4) Is the L1630R approved for use on a commercial job?
It is cULus Listed, so it carries third-party certification for both US and Canadian safety standards, which is what an inspector looks for on a commercial or institutional install.
5) How much room does this receptacle need in the box?
The device measures 2.42 in high, 1.61 in wide, and 1.28 in deep behind the face, so it fits a standard single-gang opening with a matching L1630 locking-style wallplate.
6) I need a locking receptacle above 30 amps. What else is there?
The L1630R tops out at 30A. For a larger locking drop, the Eaton 7379 industrial locking receptacle is rated 50A at 600V/250V AC/DC and is also black.
7) What should be specified instead of the L1630R in a hazardous or wet location?
The L1630R is a nylon-housed device intended for industrial, commercial and heavy-duty environments on a standard device box. Where the area is classified, Appleton offers the FSQC Series interlocked explosionproof receptacle, and the Appleton U-Line ECS factory-sealed plug and receptacle set covers 15 and 20 amp 3-pole connections. Those are enclosure-based wiring devices rather than flush device-box receptacles, so the box and conduit work differs from an L1630R installation.
8) For a 277V single-phase motor circuit, is the L1630R the right receptacle?
The L1630R is a 30A NEMA L1630 single receptacle. For a 277V motor connection, the Bryant 430R9W from the 4750DR series is a 2-pole 3-wire 277V motor-duty receptacle. Confirm the voltage and pole configuration of the equipment cord cap before choosing, since the two devices are not interchangeable.
9) Does the L1630R take the same #14-#10 AWG conductors as other industrial grade receptacles?
Yes. The L1630R accepts #14 through #10 AWG with side wire or external screw-pressure-plate back wire terminals. The Eaton 6450W heavy-duty industrial specification grade decorator single receptacle is also rated for #14-10 AWG. Wire range is therefore not the deciding factor between them; the L1630R is a 30A NEMA L1630 locking device while the 6450W is a decorator-style single receptacle.
10) Is the L1630R suitable for patient care areas, or is a hospital grade device required?
The L1630R is cULus listed and built for industrial, commercial and heavy-duty power distribution. For receptacles serving patient care spaces, the Leviton 16262-HGW is a hospital grade duplex receptacle in white, supplied in packs of 100. Hospital grade carries its own listing requirements, so confirm the facility's code requirement for the specific room before substituting either way.
11) What color is the L1630R and why does it matter?
Black. Pass & Seymour color codes locking device faces by voltage so crews can spot the right outlet and mate the correct plug without reading the fine print, which cuts down on cross-connection on a floor with several voltages.
12) Where is the Pass & Seymour L1630R made, and what is the part number to order?
Order it as Pass & Seymour L1630-R. Country of origin is Mexico.
13) What is a lower-cost device to standardize on for general 125V outlets alongside L1630R equipment drops?
The L1630R covers the 30A NEMA L1630 locking drops for heavy equipment. For the general-purpose 125V outlets on the same facility, Bryant 5362B is a heavy-duty 20A/125V duplex, and Leviton 16342 Decora Plus is a commercial grade 20A 125V NEMA 5-20R duplex in white. Those are duplex straight-blade devices and do not serve 30A locking cord caps.
14) Is the black face on the L1630R the same kind of color coding used on commercial grade receptacles?
The L1630R has a black face, and Pass & Seymour color codes the face by voltage so devices can be located and mated correctly. Commercial and industrial straight-blade devices are commonly offered in other colors for identification, such as the gray Eaton Arrow Hart 15A 125V 5-15R and the white Leviton 16352-1PW 20A 125V 5-20R. The marked NEMA L1630 configuration on the face is the definitive check, not the color alone.
