- Anderson_Powerpole abstract "The Anderson Powerpole has been adopted by some segments of the amateur radio community as their standard 12-volt DC power connector for everything from radios to accessories. It is more expensive than the older de facto standards of the 2-wire trailer plug and the Molex connector, but provides a more reliable electrical connection (both mechanically and electrically) and is easier to adapt to a wider range of wire gauges. Powerpole connectors are physically and electrically hermaphroditic, thus avoiding the need to worry about which end is the plug and which the socket, or which end has the correct polarity, as is the case with the physically but not electrically hermaphroditic 2-wire trailer plug.For use in amateur radio, the community has adopted a standard polarity for assembling the Singlepole connectors, using one red and one black housing, as well as a mnemonic for remembering the arrangement for the positive connector: Red Right—Tongue Top. The ham standard is nominal 12 volts (actually 13.8 volts), with red positive and black negative.Although many sizes of the Powerpoles are available, the size most commonly used is the 15/30/45 ampere variety (but they are available up to 180 A). These sizes all use the same plastic housing in multiple colors, differing only in the metal contact inserted into the housing (selected based on the ampacity and wire size). Larger Powerpole connectors (the SB/Multipole series) with 2 or 3 contacts in one molded housing are commonly used in various industrial settings, including as a battery connection for some UPS devices, removable vehicle winches, many electric forklifts, and other electric powered vehicles.For the larger Multipole design, which is available in up to 700 A sizes, each color is keyed so as to mate only with a like colored connector, and Anderson publishes a list of recommended voltages for each color: 12 V: Yellow Amateur radio uses red for 12V DC. Used by APC for some of its 24 V internal UPS battery packs 18 V: Orange 24 V: Red Used by Warn for its 12 V winches (should have used yellow multipole) Used by Tripp Lite for some of its 24 V external UPS battery packs Used by FIRST Robotics Competition for 12V battery connection (should have used yellow multipole) 36 V: Gray Used by Tripp-Lite for some of its 38 V external UPS battery packs Used by APC for some of its 24 V external UPS battery packs (should have used red multipole) Used In 12V Automotive in Australia, like Caravan connectors, pumps, Solar systems. 48 V: Blue Used by Tripp-Lite and APC for 48 V external UPS battery packs 72 V: Green 80 V: Black 96 V: Brown 120 V: Violet 144 V: WhiteThe connectors are also starting to be used by Radio Control hobbyists, including robot builders and the R2-D2 Builders Club.In model railways, the NTRAK Modular Railroading Society has since 2005 recommended the use of the Powerpole PP30 as an alternative to the Cinch Jones connector, while retaining the widely used latter brand within its standards.The Powerpole connector design was created by Anderson, but the patent on its design has apparently lapsed, and there are other manufacturers of compatible connectors now, including AMP and Sermos.".
