Eaton Crouse-Hinds ARKTITE CPP Series Installation & Maintenance Information
ARKTITE® PlugsCPP Series, 20 AmperesInstallation & Maintenance InformationSAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCEIF 285APPLICATIONARKTITE CPP Series Plugs are used where power is to be supplied to portable equipment suchas compressors, conveyors, portable tools, lighting systems, and similar equipment in damp,corrosive, or hazardous locations.CPP Series Plugs are compatible with CPS Series Receptacles and CPR Series Cable Connectors(nonhazardous locations) with the same electrical ratings. Refer to Crouse-Hinds Product Catalogfor a complete listing of compatible ARKTITE plugs, receptacles, and cord connectors.CPP Series Plugs are rated at 20 amperes at either 125 or 250 VAC, 60 to 400 Hertz or 18 voltsDC. CPP Series Plugs are provided in a 2-wire, 3-pole design with a provision for attachment ofthe grounding wire to the grounding pole and direct connection between plug and receptaclehousings and grounding pole.Actual operation must comply with the information stipulated on the plug nameplate. CPP SeriesPlugs should be installed, inspected, and maintained by qualified and competent personnel.All statements, technical information and recommendations contained herein are based on information and tests we believe to be reliable. The accuracy or completeness thereof are not guaranteed. In accordance with Crouse-Hinds “Terms andConditions of Sale,” and since conditions of use are outside our control, the purchaser should determine the suitability of the product for his intended use and assumes all risk and liability whatsoever in connection therewith.Eaton’s Crouse-Hinds Business IF 2851201 Wolf Street, Syracuse, New York 13208 • U.S.A. Revision 3Copyright © 2015 Revised 01/15Supercedes 12/02Type CPP516 PlugMetallic HousingINSTALLATIONFigure 1. CPP Plug Assembly (Type CPP516 shown.)1. Unscrew cable clamp assembly then remove slipwasher and cable bushing.2. Remove slotted head screws from side of plug body (2 screws on Type CPP516, 1 screwon Type CPP512). Then remove insulator contact assembly and insulating sleeve.3. Select the bushing with the closest sliding fit to the cord you are using.NOTE: Use #12 or #14 AWG Type S, SO, ST or STO Cord with range of .312 to .625inches diameter. Do not use cord with diameter less than .312”.4. Loosen cable clamp screws and pass cord through cable clamp assembly, clamp end first.Pass cord through slipwasher, then through cable bushing and plug body.* Arktite is the registered trademark of Crouse-Hinds Company.Figure 2. Cable Insulation5. Strip outer cord jacket and then conductor insulation to dimensions shown in Figure 2.Figure 3. Insulator/Contact Assembly6. Remove contacts #1 and #2 from insulator by removing slotted head screws in sides ofcontacts (see Figure 3).Type CPP512 PlugMolded CompositionHousingCAUTIONConductors are identified by the color of insulation on each conductor. These colors agreewith those given in Section 210-5 of the National Electrical Code for multi-wire branch circuits;an additional wire in the cable, uninsulated or identified green, is for grounding and complieswith the National Electrical Code. If conductors are not identified with exactly these colors,these colors may be assumed in making proper connections. Test electrically to verify properconductor identification.7. Solder conductors (except grounding conductor) into each contact wire well followingestablished system wiring pattern (see Table 2). When soldering contacts:• Tin conductor ends first.• Heat and pre-tin wire well.• Use 60/40 rosin core solder.• Insert conductor into contact wire well, then solder bymelting on conductor until well fills. Remove heat andhold rigid until solder solidifies.8. Replace contacts in numbered contact recesses in insulator block observing correctpolarity as shown in Table 2.9. Attach green ground conductor to green ground lug labeled “G”. Back out set screw partway. Insert conductor between ground stud and “V” shaped end of green ground lug(See Figure 4). Do not put conductor under pressure set screw. Tighten pressure setscrew to 12-14 in./lb.WARNINGElectrical power must be OFF before and during installation and maintenance.Figure 4.

If portable cable contains anuninsulated wire, or one identified green, this wire is for grounding the portable device. If nogreen or bare wire is in the portable cable, another wire may be connected through plug andreceptacle connections to conduit or some other non-current-carrying conductor permanentlygrounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code.NOTE: All installations must be electrically tested to assure proper polarity of conductorsbetween plugs, receptacles, and connectors.IMPORTANT: Check insulation resistance to be sure system does not have any short circuits oruninsulated grounds.10. Reassemble Type CPP516 Plugs as follows:• Insert insulating sleeve into plug body flush with inner shoulder. Align screw holeand slot of insulating sleeve with screw holes in plug body.• Place insulator/contact assembly into plug body with grounding lug (see Figure 3),align with slot in insulating sleeve and polarizing slot on exterior of plug body.• Replace slotted head screw through hole in plug body and into grounding lug oncontact assembly.• Replace slotted head screw through hole in plug body and into insulator block.11. Reassemble Type CPP512 Plugs as follows:• Place insulator/contact assembly into plug body so that the slot in insulator bodydrops over rib inside body. For ease in assembly, align slot with red arrow on exteriorof plug body.• Replace slotted head screw through hole in plug body and into insulator block.12. Slide cable clamp assembly over cable bushing and thread onto plug body assembly.Press cord firmly into plug body to relieve strain on conductor/contact connections andtighten cable clamp assembly securely to plug body.13. Tighten the cable clamp screws to complete assembly of the plug.ARKTITE plugs and receptacles are polarized so plug enters receptacle only one way. Thisassures proper polarity of conductors through plug and receptacle or cable connector.MAINTENANCEElectrical and mechanical inspection of all components must be performed on a regularlyscheduled basis, determined by the environment and frequency of use. It is recommended thatinspection be performed a minimum of once a year.• Inspect all contact wire terminals for tightness. Discoloration due to excessive heat isan indicator of a possible problem and should be thoroughly investigated and repaired asnecessary.• Clean exterior surfaces making sure nameplates remain legible.• Check tightness of all screws before using.• Inspect housings and replace those which are broken.• Check contacts for signs of excessive burning or arcing and replace if necessary.• Make sure cable clamp is intact and tight.In addition to these maintenance procedures, we recommend an Electrical PreventiveMaintenance Program as described in the National Fire Protection Association Bulletin NFPA No.70B.CPS Receptacle CPP PlugSingle GangAssemblyCat.
