Hi, This may sound really stupid, but I've been looking for this for about six years. Finally found a couple surplus from the army: Guess what this is. Hubert
Hi Hubert et al The Nato Stock Number lists it as a "Synchronising Socke" Knowing who is asking I suspect it is something to do with alternator synchronising. Am I warm?? Cheers Ewan
Hi Ewan, Close enough. It's a synchronising socket. (Nato stock number system obviously doesn't support the use of the letter "t") A clever safety gadget to switch synchronising equipment between generator panels without causing short circuit. (if I connect things the right way, that is,....) Because these things are all computer controlled now, they are extremely hard to find. There should be pins with it, but I can easily make these myself. Hubert
