1. Should I Switch? Make the switch to Anderson Power Pole Plugs

2. What do I do first? ► First Step is to do some research.  What tools do I need?  How much do I have to do?  What’s it going to cost? ► What are Some Key Features Needed  Reliable  Easy to Use (Goof Proof Mating)  $ Low Cost in Low Volume Quantities  Easy to Assemble (Crimp or Solder)  Low Cost Crimp Tooling Available  Support the Current Ranges Needed for Common Equipment

3. Your Research ► Pros  Reduces Voltage Drop  Genderless design  Silver Plated Contacts  Flat Wiping Contact System  Polarized Housings  Molded in Dovetails  Fast Setup of Power Connections  The Contacts are Designed for Crimp Style Terminations But Can Be soldered

4. Anatomy of a Powerpole

5. Your Research ► Cons  Can be costly if you replace EVERYTHING  A little confusing when installing based on NTRAK standards (We will cover this)

6. Your Research ► In a one-dimensional body, such as a wire, the relationship between current and potential can be described by Ohm's Law: ► V = IR  where ► V = difference of potential between two points on a wire ► I = current through a wire ► R = resistance measured between the same two points as the potential difference

10. Tools Needed ► Wire Strippers ► Power Pole Crimper ► Wire Cutters ► Other Tools

11. Plan ► Develop a system by:  Carefully measure wire  Review wire fasteners  Review clearances  Mark modules clearly
