Workers in areas like loading docks where trucks plug into a facility power source can relate to this scenario – the driver forgets to unplug their vehicle before pulling away, damaging the electrical service, and creating a safety hazard. Whether at a loading dock, inside an industrial facility, on an airport tarmac, or at an emergency vehicle bay, situations like this occur anywhere portable devices are plugged in.
Hubbell’s new LineSafe™ Breakaway Connector is the first of its kind in the industry. It enhances user safety, prevents asset damage, and reduces costly downtime in these portable cord applications.
The Breakaway Connector is installed inline on the cord and maintains a strong connection for uninterrupted routine use. When electrical equipment moves unintentionally, the Breakaway Connector safely disengages to protect personnel and connected equipment. The device can then be easily re-mated without any tools.
There is no need to change your current equipment or infrastructure to enjoy the benefits of the LineSafe Breakaway Connector. They are easy to retrofit into existing installations and remain unobtrusive until you really need them. Simply splice the device onto the cord at a point of your choosing for a safer solution.
Buying the Hubbell Breakaway Connector is buying peace of mind – a simple hedge to guard against costly and dangerous equipment damage.
