526035138SP

Overview

The Hoffman Enclosures Inc. part number 526035138SP is a pre-assembled power cable designed for electrical panel integration. It features an 8-foot length of 18/3 SJT wire, providing three conductors within a durable thermoplastic jacket suitable for general-purpose applications. The assembly terminates in a NEMA 5-15P plug on one end, facilitating connection to standard North American 125V AC receptacles. This component serves as a ready-to-install solution for powering internal enclosure lighting or auxiliary devices without requiring field wiring.

Feature Summary

• Pre-assembled construction eliminates the need for manual wire stripping and termination during installation.
• SJT wire rating provides flexibility and durability for indoor use environments.
• Standardized NEMA 5-15P plug ensures compatibility with common electrical outlets.

Applications

• Powering interior LED lighting strips within industrial control panels
• Supplying auxiliary power to internal fans or heaters
• Connecting external sensors or monitoring devices housed inside enclosures

Procurement Notes

Verify that the required voltage and current ratings of the connected load do not exceed the capacity of the 18 AWG conductor or the 5-15P plug. Confirm that the 8-foot length meets the spatial requirements between the power source and the enclosure mounting location. Ensure the SJT rating aligns with the environmental conditions inside the panel, such as temperature limits.

Selection Notes

Select this specific cable when a fixed-length, factory-terminated power lead is preferred over custom wiring to reduce labor time. Consider the 18/3 configuration if separate neutral and ground paths are required for the connected device. Evaluate the physical space available within the enclosure to accommodate the cable routing and plug orientation.

Part Context

This item belongs to the Hoffman MCLP (Modular Cable Management) series, which focuses on simplifying panel build processes. It replaces traditional loose wire and connector assemblies by providing a single, tested component. This approach supports standardized manufacturing workflows for electrical enclosures produced by integrators.

Replacement Considerations

No direct public substitute part numbers are documented for this specific cable configuration. Custom fabrication using equivalent 18/3 SJT wire and a NEMA 5-15P plug may serve as an alternative if exact matching components are unavailable.

FAQ

What is the maximum current rating for this cable?

The cable uses 18 AWG wire, which typically supports up to 10 amps at 125V, consistent with the NEMA 5-15P plug rating.

Is this cable rated for outdoor use?

The SJT designation indicates it is intended for hard service and indoor use; it is not rated for wet locations or direct sunlight exposure.
