B&R’s patented split captive ring design allows easy removal of plugs without the hassle and waste of cutting power cords.

Captive plugs are a mainstay in data rooms and data centres throughout the world. Secure power cables help ensure that equipment does not lose power due to accidental disconnection. Typically, if you have a basic 15 A input lead on a power distribution unit and want a captive plug, you need to remove the lead and place the captive ring onto the cable before rewiring.

B&R’s new split captive plug ring solves this problem with a two-piece design that allows the user to remove without cutting leads. The design eliminates expensive rewiring costs as well as adding security to basic extension cords. For 10 and 15 A connections, the captive ring is a plastic component that needs to be put onto the input cable prior to wiring.

The plug ring will screw onto typical IP66 sockets similar to the 56 series. The clear design allows you to see if the plug has a good connection.
