Product Description
Overview
The KUPO PL-3MXW Powerlead T1 connector is built for single-phase entertainment power systems that need a compact locking interface. Its twist-and-lock design gives positive mating engagement, while IEC 60320-1 certification with breaking capacity supports professional fixture and power-supply workflows.
Why It Matters
This line male version is the cable-end connector for inline coupling or mating to a panel female connector. The PE pin priority structure makes earth first and breaks earth last, which is a small but important safety detail when connectors are used repeatedly on LED fixtures and touring power hardware.
