Alan, I think the confusion stems from the fact that SubConn uses
one datasheet for multiple pin configurations. The per-pin-rating
is 25 amps, but the overall connector rating is 50 amps regardless
of the number of pins in the configuration. So a three pin
configuration should only carry 16.6 amps per pin, and a four pin
configuration should only carry 12.5 amps per pin, to stay within
the total connector rating of 50 amps. Perhaps this is obvious to
an electrical engineer but seems rather confusing to me. It would
be nice to see a separate data sheet for each pin configuration.<br clear="none" class="" style="">
<br clear="none" class="" style="">
So perhaps the "how many amps per pin" question was a bit specific
for an engineer who was probably considering the physical and
electrical capabilities of a single pin and not taking into
account the actual application. Anyway, I will be talking to
SubConn this afternoon to get it straightened out once and for
all.<br clear="none" class="" style="">
