Product Information
Product Overview
PowerLoad™ is a high-vibration, high-temperature resistant connector series designed for high altitude aircraft power distribution applications. An innovative combination of low-resistance contacts and a one-piece composite thermoplastic insulator with aggressive contact cavity isolation results in a reliable high-current solution that optimizes wire-to-contact termination and weight reduction in power distribution cables. Designed for use in integrated drive generator and backup generator applications, PowerLoad is available in three- and six-contact layouts for both multiphase and high-frequency power systems. Removable wire-sealing grommet and wire separator allow for easy rear release of contacts and improved sealing of tape-wrapped wire. PowerLoad 28-6 layout connector is rated at 500volt at 50,000ft with a current of 45A per contact with 3 phase power in parallel at high frequency.
