Hubbell Wiring Device-kellems RP649 Straight Blade Connector

Product Description

The HUBBELL WIRING DEVICE-KELLEMS RP649 is a residential-grade straight blade connector rated for 15 amps at 125 volts. It features a 1-15R NEMA configuration with 2 poles and 2 wires in an ungrounded design. The white housing suits standard residential wiring applications where a replacement or extension cord termination is needed. Electricians and maintenance technicians install this connector when replacing worn female cord ends on non-polarized, ungrounded circuits. It carries both UL Listing and CSA Certification, meeting widely recognized safety standards for residential electrical work.

This connector is suited for residential settings where 15-amp, 125-volt ungrounded circuits are still in service. Typical applications include replacement of female cord ends on lamps, fans, small appliances, and similar light-duty equipment. Its straight-blade, no-angle design allows for straightforward field assembly. The compact form factor makes it a practical stock item for electricians servicing older residential wiring systems that predate grounded outlet requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). Disconnect power to the circuit and unplug any cord assembly before disassembling or terminating the connector. Follow the manufacturer's terminal connection instructions and ensure conductor insulation is stripped to the correct length without nicking the wire strands. Verify that the circuit served is an ungrounded application appropriate for a 2-wire, non-grounding connector before use.
