I'm working on some small control panels just to goof around and see what works and what I like as far as switches, buttons, PIDs etc and I'm at the point where I need to figure out my high power connections.
Here's what I'm seeing as the two options:
Neutrik Powercon 32a:
Plug NAC3MP-HC
Panel NAC3MP-HC
Ouch $32 a pair.
Of course, the more common way to go is Nema L6-30
They are all over the place new and used and you can easily get a pair for under $20 if you look. The one downside I see is the size of the panel mount receptacle. It's just so darn big if you're trying to build a compact controller.
Is there any other 250v/30a plug/panel mount that is more compact that I'm missing?
