Locking rings and
isolation transformers
Hubbell Wiring Device-Kellems has developed a new locking ring design for
30amp and 50amp marine cable sets and stainless steel inlets.
Aimed at marinas and boat owners,
the products enable users to quickly
and efficiently connect their services
to achieve a watertight seal. Features
include: increased surface area for
better handling; defined
ridges for extra grip; inlet
hinge that supports its
own weight in the open
position; and recessed
threads for quicker connect
and disconnect to ensure a
watertight seal.
The rings are compatible
with existing inlets and
cable sets of the same
configurations and are Marine
UL and cUL listed.
Also new from Hubbell
Marine is a six-model range of isolation
transformers (below).
Available in combinations of 15 and
25kVA and 60 or 50/60Hz, they are
engineered to function with 50 and
100amp systems. Pre-wired, they can
be installed per ABYC E-11 for either
a polarisation or isolation transformer
system. The devices carry UL and
ABYC approvals.
Units come with either stainless
steel or white powder-coated vibrationresistant
housings and a drip lid cover
that gives easy access to the main
module, terminal block and Hubbell
Auto-Boost/remote cable receptacle.
Sand-filled and topped with epoxy, they
are built for long-lasting use in a marine
environment. Robust mounting brackets
welded to the base ensure rock-solid
stability, no matter the sea state.
The Auto-Boost feature runs a
check of the electrical system upon
start-up. If low voltage is detected,
the device will automatically boost
the output by 12.5%. It can be
configured to run in static mode,
or monitor and regulate voltage
every hour in dynamic mode
during normal operation. With the
Auto-Boost control panel mounted
remotely, it is simple to programme
the device boost power from 190V
up to 220V.
