Anderson Power Products (APP) announced its new PowerMod®HP (high power) "B" series connector family, featuring touch-safe female housings, integral positive latches and cable strain relief.

APP's PowerMod HP "B" Series connector is rated over 350 amps for appropriate applications and to 250 amps at a 30°C temperature rise. The product accommodates American wire sizes from 1/0 to 4/0 AWG and metric wires from 50 to 95mm². These connectors use APP's patented Sterling contact technology that offers low electrical resistance, provides a minimum of 500 mating cycles and is rated for circuit interruption (true hot-plug).

The unique latching system, with distinct blue buttons for clear identification, offers top-level security and ergonomics. These connectors are IP 20 rated (touch safe) for user safety, and the integral coding key provides further protection by allowing the user to configure unique mating of up to 6 individual connectors. A cable strain relief kit, which encompasses all applicable wire sizes, is available as a product option for additional reliability. PowerMod HP is offered in ten different connector housing types, including right angle, bus bar, panel mount and blindmate/float selections, delivering broad design flexibility for current and future high power interconnections.
