Being inherently cheap, I try to avoid buying commercial solutions. Mated PowerPole connectors can be secured by passing a skinny tie wrap, or a piece of hookup wire through the holes that are created when two "blocks" are dovetailed together. It's a little awkward to describe this technically, because in aerospace parlance, a mated connector consists of two connector halves. I'm not sure how to describe PowerPoles when each connector half consists of two pieces. hi hi When terminating small gauge wires in PowerPoles, strain relief is always a concern. Simply pass a piece of hookup wire through the "hole" and take both ends back alongside the wires entering the PowerPoles. Add a few turns of electrical tape and secure with a tie wrap. 72, Neal WA6OCP K3/10/305 _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
