Simplify Pump Electrical Connections with MELTRIC
Perfect Pump Maintenance with Switch-Rated Plugs and Receptacles
Up to 100 hp or 200 amps
MELTRIC’s Switch-Rated pump plugs and pump receptacles offer an efficient solution for quick pump maintenance, significantly reducing downtime by up to 50% and enabling plug-and-play simplicity. From the moment the MELTRIC pump electrical connection is latched, it is watertight. MELTRIC pump connections speed maintenance by making pre-wiring a possibility. They also replace clumsy connections like pin and sleeve, and twist-lock devices. Further, MELTRIC allows lockout/tagout (LOTO) directly on the device.
Advantages of Using MELTRIC for Pump Electrical Connections
A qualified technician can safely disconnect power to the pump simply by removing the plug, which can then be easily locked out to ensure complete safety. Traditional pump disconnect switch, plug, and receptacle servicing methods can be time-consuming and labor-intensive, but with plug-and-play MELTRIC devices, you can cut this downtime by 50% or more.

Electric Pump Connections Benefits
Safe
Safely Make/Break Motor Connections, Even During Overloads
MELTRIC Switch-Rated plugs and receptacles are designed and rated to make and break motor loads in complete safety while providing users with significant protection in the event of overloads or short circuits. Operators do not require special protective equipment or training to make and break connections with MELTRIC Switch-Rated devices. Overload testing includes 50 opening and closing operations performed at 600% of full load motor ampacity with a power factor of 0.5 or less.
All hp-rated MELTRIC devices are rated to close into and withstand short circuit currents up to 100kA in circuits protected with RK1 fusing. Note: Although Switch-Rated plugs and receptacles are rated to safely make and break motor loads, they are not rated or intended for continuous use as a motor starter. More...
Line-of-Sight Disconnect
Easily Locate Line-of-Sight Disconnects Using Mounting Options
Sections 430.102 – 430.109 of the National Electric Code require approved disconnecting means to be located in a readily accessible location within sight of the motor and driven equipment. Since MELTRIC Switch-Rated devices are UL/CSA listed for "Motor Circuit Disconnect Switching" and "Branch Circuit Disconnect Switching," they are an approved line-of-sight disconnect switch. They are a simple and convenient way to meet this NEC requirement.
MELTRIC Switch-Rated plugs and receptacles are available with numerous handles, mounting angles, wall boxes, and other accessories. They may be used as in-line connectors or may be mounted on walls, panels, equipment, or even directly on the motor. This flexibility makes it simple to locate disconnects where they are easily visible and convenient to use. More…
Pre-Wire Replacement Motors
Reduce Improper Motor Rotation with Pre-wired Replacements
Replacement motors that are pre-wired and tested with appropriately phased receptacles in the service center will automatically provide the desired direction of rotation when connected (plugged in) on site. Pre-wiring and testing eliminates the need to jog the motor and avoids additional downtime and production problems resulting from improper rotation.
Auxiliary Contacts Monitor Motor Conditions
Monitor Motor Temperature Using Built-in Auxiliary Contacts
Optional integral auxiliary contacts can be used to communicate motor temperatures back to a control center so preventative maintenance can be performed before motor a failure occurs.
