Product Description
Overview
KL-40MPCY is the yellow 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 yellow body is easy to spot on construction and festival power equipment, 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 yellow 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.
- Yellow Identification: Remains conspicuous on worksite and event-power equipment.
- 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
Why choose yellow for a male feeder-connector cap?
Yellow is conspicuous around worksite, festival and generator equipment, making the protected cable end quick to identify.
Can KL-40MPCY be used on the female half?
No. Order KL-40FPCY for the yellow 400 A female-connector cap.
Does the cap remain attached during connection?
Yes. It comes off the interface but stays with the cable through the tether and installer-crimped ferrule.
What supports the NEMA 3R statement?
The correct cap must be fully seated on the compatible male connector and remain in serviceable condition.
