Product Description
Overview
KL-40MPCR is the red Santoprene TPV protective cap for a KUPO K-LOK 400 A inline male connector. It covers the exposed connector interface while the cable is disconnected and remains attached through a 299 mm lanyard assembly. The red body is easy to recognize when red-coded feeder sets are staged together, while the dedicated fit supports NEMA 3R protection when correctly seated.
Why It Matters
The male end of a 400 A feeder remains exposed whenever a run is broken down, staged or moved between distribution points. A connector-specific cap helps keep rain, dust and handling debris away from that interface without becoming a loose accessory. The red finish also carries the cable-identification plan to the point crews handle first.
Key Features
- Male-Connector Fit: Purpose-shaped for the K-LOK 400 A inline male connector rather than used as a generic cable cover.
- Santoprene TPV Construction: Flexible, durable material rated up to 105 °C tolerates repeated fitting and removal in touring and rental workflows.
- Tethered Retention: The 299 mm lanyard keeps the cap with its cable assembly through setup, operation and strike.
- Red Identification: Provides an immediate marker for red-coded cable or receptacle groups.
- Listed Performance: UL Enclosure Types 3R environmental rating with HB / UL94 flame class.
Applications
Intended for 400 A feeder cables used in touring power, rental inventories, generator connections, temporary distribution, industrial systems and outdoor event production.
Compatibility
Fits KUPO K-LOK 400 A inline male connectors and compatible cam-type systems with the same interface. It is not interchangeable with the female-connector cap or the smaller 150 A protective-cap family.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the red cap determine the cable's electrical phase?
No. It is an identification color only. Phase, voltage and circuit function must be confirmed from the connector and system labeling.
Which interface does KL-40MPCR protect?
It covers the exposed end of a disconnected 400 A inline male connector and stays tethered while the connection is in service.
Does correct seating affect NEMA 3R protection?
Yes. The cap must match the male connector profile, remain undamaged and seat fully to support the intended protection.
Can the tether position be adjusted during assembly?
Yes. The installer positions and crimps the adjustable ferrule so the cap remains attached without obstructing normal connector use.
