Product details

9-Position Buchanan Plug at 5.00 mm Pitch

The 796640-9: The 12 AWG end is where you get the full 15 A without exceeding the temperature rise of the PA66 housing. Free hanging (in-line) mounting with 180° wire entry — the cable comes straight in, no right-angle bend, which keeps the wire bundle tidy inside a panel or junction box.
