Frequently Asked Questions
KL-400LMB FAQ
What does KL-400LMB do and where is it typically used?
KL-400LMB provides a safe, reliable single-pole male connection point for 400A circuits at up to 600V AC/DC. As a line connector with blue color coding, it is commonly used in professional entertainment power distribution, temporary construction feeds, and industrial installations.
What are the electrical ratings of KL-400LMB?
KL-400LMB is rated for 400 amperes maximum continuous current at 600V AC/DC maximum. It accepts conductors from #6 to 4/0 AWG (American Wire Gauge), with brass contacts delivering low-resistance connections for sustained high-current loads.
What does the blue housing on KL-400LMB signify?
In North America, blue designates Phase C (L3), completing the three-phase color set. Under IEC 60446, blue is reserved for the Neutral conductor — making this color essential for international projects and cross-border equipment pools. Color-coded connectors like KL-400LMB allow crews to visually verify correct phase wiring at a glance, which is especially valuable during fast-paced load-ins and load-outs.
What safety standards apply to KL-400LMB?
KL-400LMB meets UL 1691 (Cam-Type, Locking-Type Separable Connectors), is cRUus Listed under E332947, rated UL Enclosure Types 3R for weather resistance, carries a HB / UL94 flame class, and complies with RoHS hazardous substance restrictions. These certifications collectively ensure the connector is safe for professional use in entertainment and industrial environments.
Where is KL-400LMB commonly deployed?
You will find KL-400LMB at work in trade shows and exhibition installations that demand professional-grade temporary power. The blue color coding and 400-amp capacity make it particularly well suited for multi-phase power distribution in professional settings.
How do you assemble KL-400LMB in the field?
KL-400LMB features a tool-free modular design that enables rapid assembly and disassembly on site. Strip the cable, insert it through the housing, secure it with the double set screw termination, and lock the brass contact in place with the non-conductive POM retaining screw. The alignment arrow ensures correct orientation every time.
