socapex
say SOcK a pex
also called MULTI-CABLE
A 19-pin Socapex setup with a 12 gauge cable and a 20 amp circuit breaker can handle a total of 120 amps (20 amps/circuit x 6 circuits). This translates to 14,400 watts at 120 volts (120 amps x 120 volts).
Total wattage at 208 volts: 20 amps/circuit x 208 volts x 6 circuits (assuming 6 circuits in the cable) x 0.5 (50% diversity factor) = 25,920 watts
L21-30 Connector
Also called 10/5
10 gauge 5 pins
L21-30 refers to a specific type of electrical connector, also known as a NEMA L21-30. It’s a locking connector commonly used in high-power applications, typically rated for 30 amps, 120/208 volts, and with three phases and four poles.
Appearance: L21-30 connectors have a round shape with five pins, one for each phase, neutral, and ground. The plug and receptacle both have a locking mechanism that twists to prevent accidental disconnection.
