7-pin ISO 1724 trailer connector type 12N (Towing vehicle side). This connector uses a mix of pin and socket terminals. Physical design according to standard ISO 1724. [4] [8] The 7-pin connector uses all 7 pins on newer trailers according to the ISO standard. [9] [10] On older trailers there's sometimes a 5-wire setup using a 7-pin connector.
Examples are one design made by MK which has a T-shaped earth pin, and the Walsall Gauge 13 A plug, which has each pin rotated 90°, the latter being in use on parts of the London Underground for 110 V AC supply, [88] [full citation needed] and also in some British Rail [clarification needed] offices for filtered computer supplies. Variant plugs

IEC 60320 Appliance couplers for household and similar general purposes [1] is a set of standards from the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) specifying non-locking connectors for connecting power supply cords to electrical appliances of voltage not exceeding 250 V (a.c.) and rated current not exceeding 16 A. [1 ...
Ground for pin 9 [a] ISO 11446:2004 specifies a 13-pole electrical connector between towing and towed vehicles with 12 volt electrical system . It was developed in 1987 by Erich Jaeger [ 1 ] to replace older 7-pin plugs.
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 ...
Flat 5-pin connector (Towing vehicle side) This contact is not as common, but is compatible with the 4-pin connector in the way that a towing vehicle with this connector can be connected to a trailer with the 4-pin flat plug.
