I have never seen the volt rating, but they were designed for automotive and marine use using DC power, not AC power. I only use them for 12 volts.

Agreed, but I only have 12 volts! No 24 or 48 volt toys or devices.
@TheDocAUS.. me neither! 😉
However I've noted that there has been a steady increase in the availability of 24v/48v fridges/microwaves etc for the motorhome and high-end caravan market.... first things first: take delivery of one Trialmaster !!😄

Can you elaborate?
It’s just hard to get a neat closure even with the right tool on the open pins, particularly the small bits that go around the insulation, that then means you need to manually tidy them up to get through the insulation into the body of the plug. But managed to make it all work.

I made a deutsche to double cigarette socket adapter and a deutsche to Anderson plug adapter

For the Anderson plug I used 4mm rated to 25Amps, it’s probably the heaviest you could use with the DTP pins. The cigarette plug ones came with the plug, but it’s slightly lighter guage maybe 3mm?

I had the luxury of installing these for a custom product we used to sell - every 6-monthis I'd install a dozen plugs. The trick is to slightly preset the insulation tabs before crimping. Use a crimper jaw one size too large for the pin, and only compress enough to start the insulation tabs to bend. Next procede as normal...

The cable ends available in the footwells have only 1.5 mm2. This is the bottleneck. Connecting cables with a larger diameter makes no sense in this case.

Mine are intended for the roof fittings.

Ok. Sorry. I didn't pay attention to that. I also use stronger cables there.

Andrew, do you know what type of connectors are in the external outlets? Are they DT2?
@TheDocAUS has provided a lot of detail if you read back through this thread, they are Deutsch DTP. The ones I posted in that picture are actually wrong, I have since replaced with DTP

This post has all the correct technical details, click here. @AnD3rew is correct Deutsch DTP plugs on the roof of the INEOS if you chose the aux power option.

There is an INEOS DTP kit available from Connector Tech ALS (in the supplied link towards the bottom of the post). Or click here.
