Plug-On Branch Circuit Wiring System

 

Features
Plug-On Branch Circuit Wiring System features complete branch circuit wiring. You supply the feeder; Plug-On does the rest. The system will handle all popular voltage/phase combinations-2 or 3 wire, 120V, 277V, or 240V, and 3-phase, 4 wire 120/208V or 277/480V-20 amp rating. It is U.L. listed, and combines the following features:
Available on 1, 2, 3, or 4 - lamp fixtures using Rapid Start, Slimline, HO, or VHO lamps for up to 20 amp circuit runs. Supplied as single or multiple circuit with these fixtures: Surface (PT, AW), Strips (CS, K, LB, KT, CHW, SS), Industrials (KL, KL-PR, KL-PVR, CSR).
Can be arranged in any circuit control for single fixture or staggered configuration (3 or 4 wire).
May be used with any conventional hanging method-chain, Zip-Tee, slide clamp, stem or stud.
Eliminates critical fit or lineup of adjacent fixtures.
Complete, ready for connection as shipped-no separate parts to misplace. Connectors snap-lock for positive mechanical connection and are color coded for instant identification.
Carton and channel marked for ballast circuit identity-aids installation, distribution and maintenance.
Free factory consulting on coordination of order is recommended to assure proper application.
