12 Volt 7-pin trailer connector ISO 7638-2 for ABS and EBS (Towing vehicle side) Physical design according to standard ISO 7638-2. [4] [6] [7] This connector is intended to be used for 12V ABS and EBS on heavy duty trailers. Identified by key tab on outer ring between pin 3 and 4. #
Light vehicles use a plethora of contacts, [8] [9] [10] but among these are two that are most common: 4-pin flat connector, often used for simpler trailers. 7-pin round blade connector, often used in caravans/RVs etc. Due to this there are unified vehicle outlets on the market that combine these two into a single module.
The maximum size and position of the holes in the connector defined in the original patent [5] and is now defined in international standard ISO 1161:2016. [6] The tensile strength of a twistlock is rated at either 20 or 25 tonnes (19.7 or 24.6 long tons; 22.0 or 27.6 short tons).
A trailer connector is a multi-pole electrical connector between a towing vehicle (car, truck) and a trailer. It is intended primarily to supply automotive lighting on the trailer, but also provide management and supply to other loads. It is also referred to as "trailer wire," "trailer cable," or "trailer connecting cable."
The hot and neutral blades are angled at 45° from vertical and 90° to each other, unlike NEMA 10 devices (where the angles are 30° and 60° respectively), also the plug is slightly smaller than a NEMA 10 and larger than ordinary 5-15P plugs. The ground pin is round, like those on straight-blade NEMA grounding devices.
Multicon [1] Feder and Multicon WeSt (Welt Standard) connectors are precursors to ISO 11446 in a design that is intended to be compatible with ISO 1724.This means that if a towing vehicle has an outlet of this type it should be able to connect a trailer with a standard 7-pin or 5-pin connector according to ISO 1724, provided that the trailer coupling follows the standard and that the trailer ...

Twist-on wire connectors are a type of electrical connector used to fasten two or more low-voltage (or extra-low-voltage) electrical conductors. They are widely used in North America and several European countries in residential, commercial and industrial building power wiring, but have been banned in some other jurisdictions.
