While working on the initial phases of a project, the last thing anyone wants to do is spend too much time connecting temporary power equipment. Every second counts as you juggle tasks and work hard to stay ahead of approaching deadlines. What if we told you that we have a low-cost solution that can make connecting your temporary power system quick and easy? Our core philosophy is to take stress out of temporary power so that you can concentrate more of your time on other assignments. That’s why we invested time and care into offering you the perfect shortcut – our Quick Connect Camlock Box, which you may know as the Camlock Connection Box.
There’s a lot more to this Quick Connecting Enclosure with Camlocks than first meets the eye. On top of being easy on your wallet, this box packs a punch with its timesaving camlock design. Its Series 16 camlocks seamlessly join with feeder cables and lock connections into place so that they won’t slip while the load is energized. Its time-saving abilities even cascade down into other parts of your business by reducing labor costs and downtime that could derail your project’s timeline.
Additionally, this box will arrive 100% assembled and ready to install. Simply mount the box to the wall, and have an electrician connect the feeder cables inside the box. All that’s left is to connect your generator cables to the exterior of the unit and turn on the power!
Quick Connect Camlock Box Benefits
We keep our inventory packed with equipment so that we can provide you with the gear that you need in short lead times. Our warehouses are strategically located on both the East and West Coast of the United States, so we can have your order on the road and set to arrive faster than ever before!
Now that we’ve established that our Camlock Connection Box (CCB) has plenty of pros, you may be starting to wonder if it will match your project’s specifications. Don’t worry, as experts in this industry we’ve seen it all! We’ve included various amperages, voltages, and camlock angle variations that can be mixed and matched to create your ideal CCB. For example, you can choose between 400A and 800A max amperage ratings, which is perfect for using a single CCB to power a small project. If you need more power, just contact one of our reps at [email protected] and we’ll design a custom box per your exact specifications.
You can also decide between male or female panel mount camlocks, double set screw or threaded post connection types, and your choice of voltage. Each of the CCB’s voltage options will automatically include color-coded camlocks to make identifying phases a walk in the park. While mapping out the specifications that you need, you may find that your installation area is a little tight on space. Fortunately, we can help by showing you how to choose the right cam panel orientation for different situations.
A cam panel that is located on the bottom of an enclosure is ideal for times when you’re tight on wall space. Bottom-mounted cam panels work best when you use straight panel mounts, since the 90-degree angle will make connecting cables a piece of cake. If you do choose to incorporate a side mounted panel, we recommend choosing 45-degree camlocks to relieve stress on the connections.
What Makes Our Quick Connect Camlock Box So Sturdy and Safe?
Since we’ve already explored all the quick connect camlock box variations that we offer, let’s take some time to dive into what makes our CCBs long-lasting and safe to use. To kick things off, we previously discussed how we use Series 16 camlocks to make connecting equipment a breeze. Did you know that our camlocks are also designed to resist cracks and shatters? Each camlock is constructed of Santoprene TVP (Rubber) to fight damage, and they feature brass contacts that support a consistent flow of electricity throughout the portable power system. If that isn’t enough, this quick connect solution also includes covers to protect your camlocks from the elements when they’re not in use.
The quick connect camlock box’s enclosure is NEMA 4 rated. NEMA 4 can be utilized indoors or outdoors, and provides protection against falling dirt, windblown dust, and house-directed water including sleet and snow. This makes it an excellent addition to outdoor power systems. Each of these ratings serve as a promise that your electrical connections will remain safe and sound despite operating in a harsh environment.
In addition to our CCB, we offer plenty of other temporary power equipment that will help you get the job done without going over budget. Thanks to our collection of equipment such as generator cables and replacement cams, gone are the days of searching high and low for the equipment that you need. By choosing to work with us, we can use our knowledge and skills to help pair you with temporary power equipment that will enhance your efficiency and keep your project’s timeline on track.
