Product Description
Overview
KL-DCG2 is the green snap-back dust cover for a 150 A cam-type receptacle. Its high-impact, flame-retardant ABS body closes over the unused receptacle, while a gasket and corrosion-resistant stainless-steel hardware support NEMA 3R environmental protection. The green lid supports ground or system-specific identification where locally assigned.
Why It Matters
An open panel receptacle can collect rain, dust and handling debris long before a cable is connected. This cover gives the 150 A receptacle a dedicated closure that opens with the cable connection and snaps back into place afterward. The green finish also keeps identification visible at the panel rather than only on the cable.
Key Features
- Snap-Back Protection: The lid remains attached to the panel and returns over the receptacle after cable removal.
- NEMA 3R Seal: A supplied gasket helps protect the unused receptacle from falling rain and environmental exposure.
- Durable Construction: Flame-retardant ABS and stainless-steel hardware suit repeated operation on portable distribution equipment.
- Green Identification: Supports green-coded cable and receptacle identification plans.
- Listed Performance: UL Enclosure Types 3R environmental rating with HB / UL94 flame class.
Applications
Designed for 150 A cam-type receptacles on touring distros, generator panels, rental power equipment, industrial enclosures and temporary event-power systems.
Compatibility
Fits compatible 150 A cam-type panel receptacles using the listed three-hole, 120° mounting pattern. Verify flange dimensions and panel clearance before installation; it is not interchangeable with the larger 400 A KL-DC cover.
Frequently Asked Questions
May the green cover be assigned to a protective-earth receptacle?
It can support a locally documented green identification scheme, but conductor function must still be confirmed from the receptacle and panel labeling.
How does KL-DCG2 differ from a cable-end protective cap?
KL-DCG2 is a panel-mounted snap-back cover for a 150 A receptacle. Cable-end caps use a tethered Santoprene body and do not share this mounting flange.
What are the principal envelope dimensions?
The drawing lists a 51.2 mm overall side dimension, 47.6 mm outside diameter and 33.3 mm overall height.
How is weather resistance maintained?
The cover must be installed with its gasket, secured through all three mounting holes and allowed to close fully over the unused receptacle.
