Leviton 16R24-UW Panel Receptacle 400A 600V Nema 3R

Product Description

The LEVITON 16R24-UW is a heavy-duty female panel receptacle rated for 400 amps at 600 volts, designed for demanding industrial and commercial electrical installations. Built to NEMA 3R standards, the enclosure resists rain, sleet, and ice formation, making it suitable for protected outdoor locations. The threaded stud termination method accommodates wire sizes from 2 AWG up to 4/0 AWG, providing a secure, vibration-resistant connection at high-current service points. Finished in white, the receptacle measures 3.56 inches in overall length. Electricians rely on this type of panel receptacle in service entrance, temporary power distribution, and panel-level connection applications.

This panel receptacle is intended for use in high-amperage electrical distribution systems in commercial and industrial environments where a NEMA 3R-rated enclosure is required. Its 600-volt rating makes it appropriate for both single-phase and three-phase distribution panels and switchgear assemblies exposed to weather. It is typically installed by licensed electricians performing service entrance work, generator interlock wiring, or similar high-current panel connections requiring a reliable, code-compliant female receptacle interface.
