Reliance Controls L1430C 30-Amp L14-30 Female Connector for Generator Cords,Black

If you have a 30 amp/220 volt generator, you will need this plug to plug into an exterior wall adapter that is wired into your electrical box. This plug is manufactured by the leader in generator controls and equipment. It works very well and is very easy to install. This is a high quality product. You do need to know a little bit about electrical wiring to properly wire this plug. If you don't know or never have performed any electrical service work, do yourself a favor and hire a professional electrician. All you will do is screw up this device, cause an electrical short or worse. This is a professional product and it does come with only basic instructions. It must be installed onto the properly sized electrical 4-wire cable. In addition, it is about half the cost of what you will find in your local hardware store.

If you know the reason for having this type of plug, (for a power inlet box from generator) it works well, is well designed and unless your a total screw-up, there is no way this plug will fail you. Price is great and shipping was quick. Reliance Controls is a well known company and has quality items. Buy name brand stuff instead of cheap no-name stuff and you will be happy!

I love Reliance products. You can see the quality.

Good and cheaper than hardware store, same item as hardware store, worked for my generator to house generator outlet

Connector has several nice features. Connector terminals are labled to help you keep power phases consistent. terminals are color coded for power, neutral, and ground. Insulator block is clear plastic which seems to be very rugged even though I initially thought otherwise and back of connector has rubber bladders to tightly grip cable jacket to make a good seal against water intrusion. A couple of comments: Strip length is not defined so use some scrap cable length before commiting your good cable for final termination, Also watch that you only strip the outer jacket to the minimum length you need so rubber bladders can do their job. If you lay things out you can prevent having to cut and re-terminate like I did on one side where I missed engaging the rubber bladder by just .25 inch, like I said....lay it out and test with a 3-4 inch piece of scrap before hand and you will be golden. One other issue is the keying of plastic housing....Keying is great but on the small side so you have to be careful you do put everything together properly.

Heavy duty as expected and a bargain when compared to the local price of the exact same unit. Used to connect toa 10 guage power cord for a 30 amp, 5500 watt generator.

I actually used this to modify a transfer switch in order for it to have an outlet (L14-30R) instead of its original inlet (L14-30P). This was almost a drop in solution. I just had to ditch the rear casing and shave off some standoffs on the rear of the assembly (see circled red in attached photo) and it was good to go. Works perfectly!

The connector along with the companion I bought for the other end which was a "Leviton 2711 30 Amp, 125/250 Volt, NEMA L14-30P, 3P, 4W, Locking Plug, Industrial Grade, Grounding - Black-White" made a perfect pair for the generator connection. Easy to put on the cable and sturdy.
