Compact Anderson Power 1461G3-BK Connector Supporting Wire Contacts And PCB Contacts Configurations
Powerpole PP15-45 Series Connectors
Product Overview
The Powerpole PP15-45 series represents the smallest Powerpole housings, designed for versatile wire-to-wire or wire-to-board applications. These connectors accommodate wire sizes from #20 AWG (0.75 mm) to #10 (6 mm), offering power capabilities up to 55 amps per pole. Key features include finger-proof housings for enhanced safety against accidental contact with live circuits and the option for first-mate last-break ground connectors. The series offers high power density in a compact footprint, supporting both wire and PCB contacts within the same housings.
