The TE Connectivity 917354-1 is a 12-position, 2-row plug housing from the Power Double Lock series. It uses a 6.50 mm pitch with matching 6.50 mm row spacing, giving each contact pair generous creepage for power-level voltages. The natural PA66 housing carries a latch lock for positive retention in free-hanging harness assemblies. Contacts are not included — this is the housing only, requiring the separately ordered crimp socket terminals.
Key Ratings and Fit
The 6.50 mm pitch is wide for a wire-to-board connector — it gives the contact beams room to carry higher current without heat buildup, and the 6.50 mm row spacing keeps the two rows electrically isolated even in humid environments. The latch lock engages with an audible click when mated to the matching Power Double Lock receptacle, and the free-hanging mounting means this housing sits in the wire harness, not on a PCB.
What You Need to Order Separately
The 917354-1 is a housing only — no contacts are included. You need to source the matching Power Double Lock crimp socket terminals (female contacts) and the correct wire gauge terminals for your 20-16 AWG range. The crimp termination requires a hand or pneumatic crimp tool; the terminal locks into the housing cavity and the secondary latch (if present on the receptacle side) confirms full seating. For a complete mated pair, order the matching Power Double Lock receptacle housing and the terminals separately.
