Waterproof connector 30A
Waterproof connector 30A
(OP)
I just bought this connector
***p://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/191278895319?tfrom=191405132575...
It says 30A rated but on arrival I found the contacts to be only 1mm diameter which I really doubt they can handle 30A.
So can someone point me to a similar connector (panel mount socket and cable mount screw on plug) that really can handle 30A at 12V load?

RE: Waterproof connector 30A
For 30A, you probably want a size 8 pin - which is going to push you towards some less common/more pricy options.
These are quite nice, but demand a very different sort of budget.

Not really an aviation connector, more of a low-end commercial or consumer-grade marine/pleasure boating electronics connector.

The connector you linked to looks similar to Bulgin's 'Buccaneer' series. Generally quite good for the price, but you get what you pay for to some extent. http://www.bulgin.co.uk/Products/Buccaneer/Buccane...

The Bucaneer 7000 series looks good and not too expensive. Thanks for the link.

This is overkill for your particular application, but there are lots of options with this line of products.
Hope that helps, MikeL
