Red Anderson Plug | 50amp Red

What is an Anderson Plug?

An Anderson Plug is a heavy-duty electrical connector commonly used in 12V and 24V systems, especially for 4WDs, caravans, campers, and dual battery systems. It’s the specialised socket at the end of a charge circuit, allowing power to flow from a vehicle battery with minimal voltage drop.

Thanks to its unique flat-pin design, the Anderson plug provides a secure grip, preventing disconnection even under extreme vibration. The self-cleaning terminals make it a durable and reliable choice for harsh environments—perfect for off-road and outdoor applications.

Why Do So Many People Use Anderson Plugs?

One of the main benefits of Anderson plugs is their ability to handle high current loads, from 50 amps up to 175 amps, depending on the model. This makes them ideal for powering:

• Dual battery systems

• Electric winches (e.g., on boat trailers)

• 12V air compressors

• Solar panels and charge controllers

Where Can I Find a Female Anderson Plug?

It’s a common question—but here’s the answer: Anderson plugs don’t have male or female ends. Both sides are identical and designed to lock into each other, ensuring a strong, secure electrical connection between two cables.

This genderless design makes Anderson plugs extremely universal, reducing compatibility issues when buying or installing.

What is an “Anderson Style Plug”?

An Anderson Style Plug is typically a cheaper imitation of a genuine Anderson product. These copies often use inferior materials, resulting in poor durability, unreliable connections, and potential electrical issues when used in mobile setups like 4WDs or trailers.

Genuine Anderson plugs can be identified by the “A” symbol stamped into the terminals or lugs. Always ensure you’re buying the real deal—especially for critical systems.
