Should I Switch?

1. Should I Switch? Make the switch to Anderson Power Pole Plugs

2. First Step is to do some research. What tools do I need? How much do I have to do? What’s it going to cost? What are Some Key Features Needed Reliable Easy to Use (Goof Proof Mating) $ Low Cost in Low Volume Quantities Easy to Assemble (Crimp or Solder) Low Cost Crimp Tooling Available Support the Current Ranges Needed for Common Equipment What do I do first?

3. Your Research • Pros • Reduces Voltage Drop • Genderless design • Silver Plated Contacts • Flat Wiping Contact System • Polarized Housings • Molded in Dovetails • Fast Setup of Power Connections • The Contacts are Designed for Crimp Style Terminations But Can Be soldered

4. Anatomy of a Powerpole

5. Your Research • Cons • Can be costly if you replace EVERYTHING • A little confusing when installing based on NTRAK standards (We will cover this)

6. Your Research • In a one-dimensional body, such as a wire, the relationship between current and potential can be described by Ohm's Law: • V = IR • where • V = difference of potential between two points on a wire • I = current through a wire • R = resistance measured between the same two points as the potential difference

10. Tools Needed • Wire Strippers • Power Pole Crimper • Wire Cutters • Other Tools

11. Plan • Develop a system by: • Carefully measure wire • Review wire fasteners • Review clearances • Mark modules clearly
