Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the EAC405060 with PX0695/15/63 is valid based on the following criteria:

Matching Electrical Parameters:

• Identical connector style: IEC 320-2-2/F
• Identical connector type: Receptacle, Female Sockets
• Identical current rating: 10A
• Identical voltage rating: 250VAC
• Identical number of positions: 3
• Identical filter type: Unfiltered - Commercial

Matching Mechanical Parameters:

• Identical mounting type: Panel Mount, Snap-In
• Panel cutout dimensions within tolerance: 32.26mm x 24.77mm (EAC405060: 32.26mm x 24.76mm)
• Compatible panel thickness range

Compliance Alignment:

• Both parts are ROHS3 Compliant
• Both parts are REACH Unaffected
• Both parts classified as EAR99

The primary difference is the termination connector size: EAC405060 uses 0.187" (4.7mm) quick connect terminals, while PX0695/15/63 uses 0.250" (6.3mm) quick connect terminals. This difference requires verification of mating connector compatibility in the specific application circuit.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both EAC405060 and PX0695/15/63 are active production parts with full regulatory compliance. Selection between these parts depends on termination connector compatibility within the target application. The EAC405060 accommodates 0.187" (4.7mm) quick connect terminals, while the PX0695/15/63 accommodates 0.250" (6.3mm) quick connect terminals. Panel cutout dimensions are functionally equivalent. The PX0695/15/63 carries additional approval certifications (CSA, ENEC, UL, VDE) and specifies material flammability rating UL94 V-0, providing additional documentation for applications requiring enhanced regulatory traceability. Both parts maintain identical electrical performance at 10A, 250VAC with IEC 320-2-2/F connector geometry.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can EAC405060 and PX0695/15/63 be used interchangeably in the same application?

A: Electrical and mechanical compatibility is confirmed for IEC 320-2-2/F panel mount applications. The critical difference is the quick connect terminal size: 0.187" (4.7mm) versus 0.250" (6.3mm). Interchangeability depends on whether the mating connectors in the application circuit are compatible with the respective terminal sizes.

Q: Are the panel cutout dimensions identical?

A: Panel cutout dimensions are functionally equivalent. EAC405060 specifies 32.26mm x 24.76mm, while PX0695/15/63 specifies 32.26mm x 24.77mm. The 0.01mm difference in one dimension is within standard manufacturing tolerance and does not affect panel mounting compatibility.

Q: What is the difference in panel thickness accommodation?

A: EAC405060 accommodates panel thickness of 0.056" to 0.070" (1.42mm to 1.78mm). PX0695/15/63 specifies 0.059" (1.50mm), which falls within the EAC405060 range. Both parts are compatible with standard panel thicknesses in this range.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. PX0695/15/63 carries additional approvals (CSA, ENEC, UL, VDE) and specifies UL94 V-0 material flammability rating. Applications requiring these specific certifications should specify PX0695/15/63.

Q: What is the inventory status for each part?

A: EAC405060 has 874 units in stock (Switchcraft). PX0695/15/63 has 917 units in stock (Bulgin). Both parts are available for immediate procurement.
