HI,
I am looking for a compact connector for a heating device which will need to handle up to 50A constant or 55A short burst.
.
The recommended wiring is 14AWG with a max of 12AWG, silcon/teflon insulated
The proposed plug may need to be 2 prong or possibly I may be able to ground another way.
There is a possibility of a muti prong design to spread the load
Can anyone tell me the minimum surface area needed to safely carry that current?
Thanks
