Title: Hubbell Old Style Connectors, Source?? Post by: W6TOM on October 24, 2017, 02:38:05 PM I have one of these old style Hubbell chassis AC connectors, 15 amp, 120 vac, see picture.
I want to find another of these chassis AC connectors and 2 of the connectors that plug into it. I'm also looking for the 20 amp, 120 vac equivalent chassis AC connector and the plug, same outside diameter. Anyone have a source?? Thanks!! Title: Re: Hubbell Old Style Connectors, Source?? Post by: KA0HCP on October 24, 2017, 03:07:01 PM I've got some navy gear that has the two prong version. I've been looking for a modern 3 prong version without luck. Best I can figure is to replace it with a ubiquitous Euro plug on a blanking plate.

They have an on-line catalog. General web site is grainger.com. May take a little time to look through the catalog, but may be able to search for the Hubbell part number. They have physical stores; may be one in your area. We have one about 25 miles away.

There is a Granger near me in Oakland, thanks!! Title: Re: Hubbell Old Style Connectors, Source??

Try your local hardware store for the cable - you may have to shave some plastic to make it fit. AMfone - Dedicated to Amplitude Modulation on the Amateur Radio Bands
http://www.hubbellcatalog.com/wiring/datasheet.asp?PN=HBL5240 I'm not sure there is a 20A "miniature" size. There is this 20A version http://www.hubbellcatalog.com/wiring/section-a-datasheet.asp?PN=HBL5378C Some other candidates - Leviton 5239 - maybe too big. http://www.leviton.com/en/products/5239 Hubbell HBL-5278C - maybe too big. http://www.hubbellcatalog.com/wiring/datasheet.asp?PN=HBL5278C |
