Pasco Specialty Mfg Co 5080 Romex Connector

Product Description

The PASCO SPECIALTY MFG CO 5080 is a Romex connector designed to secure and protect non-metallic sheathed cable (NM cable) as it enters an electrical box or panel. This type of fitting clamps around the cable jacket to prevent abrasion at the knockout edge and to maintain a secure, code-compliant connection. Electricians use this connector during rough-in and finish wiring on residential and light commercial projects. It is sold as a single unit, making it easy to order in the exact quantity needed for the job at hand.

The 5080 is suited for use in residential new construction, renovation wiring, and service work where NM cable transitions into electrical boxes, junction boxes, or panels. It is a standard trade-supply item stocked on service vehicles and in electrical supply rooms. Installation does not require specialty tools, and the connector is compatible with standard knockout openings sized to match NM cable fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). Always de-energize the circuit and verify with a non-contact voltage tester before working inside any electrical box or panel. Insert the connector through the knockout, tighten the locknut firmly by hand or with a locknut wrench, and ensure the cable jacket extends at least 0.25 inches past the connector clamp into the box per NEC requirements. Do not overtighten to the point of damaging the cable jacket.
