Ground-Monitoring Turn-Lock Plugs and Sockets

Check the status of a ground connection—a green light signals that connectors have power and are safely grounded. A red light indicates power only. The lights are visible from any angle for quick identification. A quarter turn locks connectors in place to remain secure in high-vibration applications and prevent accidental disconnection.

Interference-Limiting Turn-Lock Receptacles

Protect computers and other sensitive equipment from electromagnetic interference (EMI). Also known as isolated ground receptacles, they have a ground terminal that is insulated from the mounting strap so you can run an isolated ground wire through the conduit. When mated with a plug, a quarter turn locks them in place to remain secure in high-vibration applications and prevent accidental disconnection. Receptacles fit standard wall plates (not included).

A quarter turn locks them in place to remain secure in high-vibration applications and prevent accidental disconnection.
