Premium Members Michael Desiderio Posted September 16, 2016 Premium Members Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 Wondering if there is a resource for D-tap receptacles that are meant for chassis/panel mounting (small d-box or panel) I've made due with shoehorning a standard female plug with epoxy and clever cutting in the past but if there is a reasonably priced alternative I'm really interested in that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Alan Rencher Posted September 22, 2016 Premium Members Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 I've actually designed one for use at my shop. I print them from my own 3D printer. It mounts in a 1" hole with #4 screws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Michael Desiderio Posted September 23, 2016 Author Premium Members Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 I figured it would be a 3D printed project in the end, so you just use a standard female D-tap for that mount and use a through-bolt to hold it in place yeah? Also I was looking more at something similar to your https://mediablackout.net/products/breakerbox which is much smaller . Is that a 3D printed chassis with the connector built in? edit: nevermind read that its milled aluminum, so what do you use for the female d-tap? I've actually designed one for use at my shop.

Premium Members Alan Rencher Posted September 23, 2016 Premium Members Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 I use genuine Anton/Bauer female P-Taps for all of my projects that require them. That 3D printed part will fit around the P-Tap. The BreakerBox also uses genuine Anton/Bauer P-Tap contacts and inserts. They're mounted in a milled aluminum enclosure that I designed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
