Product Overview
The Reno A&E SKT-11 is an 11-pin socket base used to mount and wire compatible plug-in vehicle loop detectors. It is a practical part for control cabinets where the detector should plug into a fixed base with screw terminals rather than hang from a loose harness. The socket gives installers a serviceable wiring point for line or low-voltage detector power, loop lead-in conductors, and relay contacts. It is commonly used with Reno A&E, EDI, and similar 11-pin Amphenol-style detector applications, including AX, B, BX, BXC, and related detector families when the detector pinout matches. The socket base does not determine detector voltage or output mode; those are controlled by the detector model and wiring. Correct terminal identification is important because a wrong power landing can damage a detector.
Compatible With
- Compatible 11-pin Amphenol-style vehicle loop detectors where a socket base is specified.
- Reno A&E AX, B, BX, BXC, and related 11-pin detector families when the pinout is confirmed.
- Gate operator, barrier gate, parking control, and access-control cabinets needing a screw-terminal detector socket.
- Replacement of damaged, corroded, cracked, or missing 11-pin detector socket bases.
- Common retrofit use with Reno A&E SKT-11 / 374-0011-00 socket base references.

Technician Note
A clean socket makes detector service easier, but it also creates another point to inspect. Loose terminal screws or wrong relay terminals can cause intermittent gate behavior.
Before Ordering Checklist
- Confirm the detector has an 11-pin plug-in base.
- Compare the detector pinout to the socket terminal markings.
- Identify detector power terminals before energizing.
- Verify loop lead-in and relay contact wiring after installation.
- Replace any corroded or heat-damaged field wiring connected to the old socket.
Important Ordering Warnings
- The SKT-11 socket is not a detector and will not fix a bad loop circuit by itself.
- Do not assume every 11-pin detector uses the same voltage or relay function on the same terminals without checking the manual.
Professional Advisory
Vehicle loop detectors and related wiring parts should be installed with the operator power off and tested with the gate, barrier, or door system in a controlled position. Do not bypass required safety devices. If the installation involves high voltage, damaged conduit, wet junction boxes, or uncertain relay wiring, use a qualified gate or access-control technician.
Product Questions and Answers
What does the SKT-11 socket do?
It provides a screw-terminal base for compatible 11-pin vehicle loop detectors to plug into inside a control cabinet.
Is part number 374-0011-00 the same as SKT-11?
Yes. 374-0011-00 is commonly associated with the Reno A&E SKT-11 socket base.
Does this socket include a loop detector?
No. The socket base is sold as the wiring/mounting interface only. The loop detector is separate.
Can it be used with BX Series detectors?
It may be used with BX Series 11-pin detectors when the cabinet wiring and detector pinout match.
Is this socket DIN rail mountable?
Common SKT-11 references describe it as screw mountable and not DIN rail mountable.
