12v plug and socket

[larrie]

Am looking for 40 amp plug and socket to use with my inverter. I do not want to permanently wire in the inverter, just want to plug it in when needed. What I would like to use is a standard round 12v plug and socket but I can only find them rated for 15amps. Do any of you have suggestions?

You can use any plug rated at 40 or more amps but you might have to go to a more available higher voltage one

I don't think I've ever seen a typical 12V plug rated for anything more than 15A.

Try searching for a "winch plug". Many capacities available.

Or search Ranger bass boat trolling motor plug. Not sure what the rated amps are though. I didn't know if you wanted a flush mount or pigtail style.
