Sea-Dog Polarized Electrical Outlet 426262-1, 2-Pin Chrome Plated Brass Deck Connector, 3 Amp 12/24VDC
The Sea-Dog Polarized Electrical Outlet (part 426262-1) is a 2-conductor deck cable outlet built for boats that need a reliable, weatherproof way to run 12/24VDC power to onboard electronics. The two pins are sized differently from each other, so the mating plug can only be connected one way, which prevents reverse-polarity hookups that can damage sensitive equipment. The outlet is constructed of cast brass with a chrome plating, giving it corrosion resistance for salt and fresh water use, and it includes a rubber gasket along with a water resistant cap to keep the connection protected when not in use.
This outlet is rated 3 Amps and accepts wire up to 14 gauge, with wire attaching to the internal terminals via brass set screws for a secure, serviceable connection. It mounts to a deck or panel using three #6 round head fasteners, which are not included. The compact footprint (1-7/16 inches by 15/16 inches) makes it suitable for helm stations, transoms, and other deck locations where a clean, low-profile power connector is needed. This is one part in a family of Sea-Dog polarized outlets that share the same body dimensions but differ in pin count and amperage; be sure to order 426262-1 specifically for the 2-pin, 3 Amp configuration.
