Problem: working in a Data center and noticing a lot of the 30 amp 250 volt PDUs purchased for the switching cabinets are foreign made. The twist lock cord plugs are marked L6-30p, but the actual blades of the plugs are slightly different in thickness. When plugged into a HBL2623 or Leviton cord L6-30r the plugs seems that they do not mate tightly, when twisted and locked in, as compared to using/intermixing Hubbell and or leviton cord ends. We have had a few PDU cord ends heat up,discolor, and i'm questioning the physical characteristics of the PDU cord end.
Question: is there any MFG directions that discourage intermixing different MFG components / or any NEC issues. Has any one have had the same issue?
Thanks
