Anderson PowerPole connectors are pretty cool. The Jackets have dovetails on all four sides. You can slide together the jackets into all sorts of shapes and configurations. I like to assemble my PowerPoles with the Red jacket on the right. It is easy to remember, Red on right. That way all your batteries and lights are assembled the exact same way and you will not plug in a black connector, into a red connector. There is a stainless steel spring plate in each jacket that pushes each terminal up against the other terminal when two PowerPoles are connected together. |

Assembly Instructions: Assemble the jackets with the Red jacket on the right. When you look inside the jacket, the stainless steel spring is down. Look at the picture above to see which side is down. Slide the dovetails together. Never try to pull apart or snap together the jackets. The dovetails slide together very easily. Lay the jacket pair down flat and press in the roll pin with a pair of pliers to keep the jackets from coming apart. Grab your Red/Black zip wire and put the red wire on the right. Slide a bit of .25" heat shrink onto your wire pair if you want to. Strip both wires back about .25" Crimp on the terminals with the curve side down. see photo above Solder the terminals - Make sure the solder is sucked down into the terminals. Line up the terminals so that both are straight. Push both terminals into the jackets at the same time. Look into the opposite end, so you can see the tips of the terminals. Push hard until both terminals click and lock. |
