Re: Mach2GTO Anderson Powerpole passthrough current rating #Mach2GTO
|
It is a straight-through run that is fully isolated from the mount frame, as it should be. It has no internal fusing. That wouldn't be a bad thing to add. My memory is a bit faded but IIRC, it is 14 ga wire and can handle up to 15 amps, although 10 amps is a more reasonable limit. Roland or George will correct me if I am wrong. IMHO, putting anything besides 12-14 VDC on it is inviting problems. Too easy to mix up power supplies and devices and burn stuff up. I think it is better to just run the 12-14 VDC and then use regulators to step the voltage down (or up) from there after it has emerged out of the top of the mount. Of course YMMV.
