In short: The Lex A5025 is a 1-foot adapter that lets you power gear with a blue powerCON® inlet from a powerCON TRUE1® outlet. It has a 20A powerCON TRUE1 male plug on one end and a 20A blue powerCON female connector on the other, joined by #12/3 SJOOW cord. It is rated 20A at 125V AC, single-phase (hot, neutral, ground).
Bridge old and new
Newer distro, power strips and cable runs often use powerCON® TRUE1, but many fixtures and devices still take power through an original blue powerCON inlet. The two systems are keyed differently and won't plug into each other. The A5025 bridges that gap, so you can keep using your blue-inlet gear on a TRUE1 power system.
Feed fixtures with blue powerCON inlets from TRUE1 outlets without rebuilding cables or swapping inlets.
Genuine Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 and powerCON connectors on both ends, the same locking hardware used across the industry.
#12/3 SJOOW cord is oil resistant and rated for outdoor use, and the 12-gauge conductors carry the full 20A rating.
A 1-foot length keeps the adapter close to the fixture, with no extra cable to coil, dress or trip over.
Durable materials and Lex construction hold up to repeated rigging, touring and rental use.
Lex builds it for theatrical, convention center and live event power, where mixed connector systems are common.
On set & on show
Use the A5025 anywhere a TRUE1 power source needs to feed equipment with a blue powerCON power input:
Using it safely
The TRUE1 end can be connected and disconnected under load. The original blue powerCON end can't, so make and break power at the TRUE1 end.
Original powerCON connectors are not designed to be connected or disconnected under load. Follow your local code, venue rules and the equipment manufacturer's instructions.

Questions
The Lex A5025 lets you power equipment that has a blue powerCON inlet from a powerCON TRUE1 outlet. It has a 20A TRUE1 male plug on one end and a 20A blue powerCON female connector on the other, on 1 foot of #12/3 SJOOW cord, rated 20A at 125V AC.
On original powerCON, blue marks power going into a device and gray marks power coming out. The A5025's blue female connector plugs into a device's blue power-in inlet. It will not mate with gray powerCON connectors, which are keyed differently.
Only at the TRUE1 end. powerCON TRUE1 has breaking capacity and can be connected or disconnected under load, but original blue powerCON connectors cannot. Connect the blue end first, then plug in the TRUE1 end, and unplug the TRUE1 end first when you disconnect.
No. Original powerCON and powerCON TRUE1 are keyed differently and do not mate directly. An adapter like the Lex A5025 is needed to connect a TRUE1 power source to equipment with a blue powerCON inlet.
It is rated 20A at 125V AC, 60 Hz, single-phase with hot, neutral and ground, 2-pole and 3-wire.
It uses 1 foot of black #12/3 SJOOW cord. SJOOW cord is oil resistant and rated for outdoor use, and 12-gauge conductors carry the full 20A rating.
The A5025 only goes from a TRUE1 power source to a blue powerCON inlet. To power TRUE1 equipment from an original powerCON source, you need an adapter wired in the opposite direction. Call us and we'll help you find the right one.
