Panel-Mount Plug Housing for Power Distribution
It uses a 0.400" (10.16 mm) pitch — wide enough for power-grade wire and panel-mount spacing. A polarizing key on the housing prevents incorrect mating with the receptacle, which matters when several connectors share a panel.
3 Positions vs 2 — the Circuit-Count Decision
The 2-353047-3 carries 3 positions against the 2 positions of the 2-353047-2 at the same 0.400" (10.16 mm) pitch. Both are single-row, panel-mount, black housings with a polarizing key. No other functional difference — the same crimp terminals and mating receptacles apply across both.
Active Production, No Obsolescence Pressure
The part can be specified into new builds without a substitution plan.
Crimp Termination and Contact Ordering
The panel mount style and polarizing key mean the housing is fixed to the panel, and the mating receptacle (sold separately) is free-hanging or panel-mounted depending on the chosen mate. The 10.16 mm pitch gives room for larger-gauge wire and a positive lock engagement.
