12VHPWR Cable Plug Connection Recommendations
• Crimp Contacts inside of the cable plug are recommended to use the “4 Spring”
design instead of “3 Dimple” design (as shown in Figure 5-6) which will increase
the contact area for electrical current flow inside the 12VHWPR connector and
reduce the temperature rise of each contact.
