Hi Everyone,
I am sending this to make sure that everyone using Powerpoles uses them the
same way around.
This is the recommended way and is the way standardised for WICEN use. It is
also the way the ones at the club are wired.
Please make certain you adhere to this method to avoid the embarrasment (or
worse) of blowing up your equipment.
73....Eric.

Powerwerx recommends that the housings should be mated according to the
diagram above, viewing from the contact side (opposite the wire side),
tongue down, hood up, RED on the LEFT, BLACK on the RIGHT. Powerwerx
supplies a 3/32-inch-diameter roll pin, 1/4 inch long, to keep the housings
from sliding apart.
Note: Some organizations assemble the connector housings opposite of the
above. Check with your local organization / group for the local "standard".
Highly conductive silver-plated copper contacts allow minimal contact
resistance at high currents. Self-wiping action on make and break keeps
conducting surfaces clean. Contact dents keep connectors mated in
high-vibration applications and provide quick-break, snap action upon
disconnect.
Non-corrosive stainless-steel leaf springs maintain constant contact
pressure-ideal for frequent connections/disconnections and intermittent
overloading. Durable, high impact-resistant, polycarbonate housing with
UL94V-2 flammability ratings comes in many colors for circuit trace ability
and coding.
Identical connector halves are genderless-making assembly quick and easy and
reducing the number of parts stocked. Molded-in dovetails allow for
customized harness in a variety of configurations.
The 30-ampere contacts are designed for 12-16 AWG wire. The contacts can be
soldered or crimped to wires. A very expensive crimping tool is available
from Anderson (we offer a very inexpensive alternative that does just as
good a job). After a contact has been attached to a wire, it should be
installed into the housing so that the housing spring mates with the
underside of the contact. When you slide it completely in the housing you
should hear a click when it passes the spring detent.
To remove a contact from the housing, use Anderson insertion/extraction tool
#111038G2. You may also substitute a very small blade (jewelers screwdriver
or X-Acto knife) to lift up the front of the contact slightly over the
detent and pull the contact out of the rear of the housing, allowing the
contact to be removed.
