Color-Keyed Motor Lead Disconnects

Enables fast and easy change-out of electric motors without bolting, taping or loose connections.

Helps reduce costly downtime
ABB Installation Products’ Color-Keyed® motor lead disconnects speed up motor installation and change-out, helping reduce downtime in water and wastewater processing, food and beverage processing, oil and gas, power generation, renewable energy and other applications using electric motors.

Key benefits

Color-Keyed motor lead disconnects are easy to use. Simply crimp the male and female disconnects onto your wires, plug them together, slide on insulating boot and secure with two Ty-Rap® cable ties.

UL listed – Complies with industry safety standards
Complete line – 600 V two- and three-wire and 5 kV applications with a wire size range of #16 AWG to 500 kcmil
Quick connections – Eliminates nuts, bolts and washers
Reliable insulation – Eliminates excessive insulating tape. The reusable insulating boot creates a total assembly small enough for tight motor housings
Labor savings – Fast snap-together assembly
Quick disconnect – Eliminates the need for knife-cutting melted tape, reducing the risk of cutting wire insulation and helping minimize installer injury and motor downtime
