Re: Favorite HV Umbilical Materials?

I live in Europe and I know of nothing that is legal for domestic use of 300vDC. So there seems to be no "correct" connector, just a whole load of illegal things that will unofficially do the job. Frankly, since the whole lot are illegal you may as well use anything - XLR 4 pins, 9 pin D connectors, speakon plugs, and in your case EP-4 chassis mount connectors which should be perfect - commonly available, nice high voltage rating around 600vDC for normal use except, guess what, rated 50v for European domestic use. If the EU can't be bothered to specify an acceptable domestic solution to umbilicals they're simply creating a rogue market. Totally stupid and counter-intuitive.
