Design
Based off the design pioneered by Anderson in 1953, the two pole SB connectors set the standard for DC power distribution and battery connections. SB connectors feature a rugged one piece plastic housing using stainless steel springs to retain the contacts and create the “contact force” that provides extremely low resistance enabling greater electrical efficiency. The SB connectors are also genderless (flip one 180 degrees and they will mate to each other) reducing the customer’s bill of materials and providing greater economies of scale when purchasing. The SB series of connectors range in size from SB 50 to the SB 350. All the connectors are UL rated to 600 volts so the keys and colors are just identifiers to prevent accidents. Contacts are traditionally silver plated to minimize electrical resistance while offering supreme durability and reliability.
Compatibility
Anderson Plugs have colour coded, mechanically keyed housings designed to prevent both visually and physically cross-mating devices with different voltages. Each colour of Anderson Plug is recommended to be used exclusively for it’s designated voltage.
However, in practice in Australia the Grey Anderson Plug is often used for all voltage ratings. Please check what colour Anderson Plug your battery currently has and chose the same colour Anderson Plug, and the same width Anderson Plug (SB175 = 55mm wide & SB350 = 70mm wide), when ordering an Anderson Plug with your Battery Charger purchase.
