In today's rapidly advancing world, technology continues to evolve, leading to an ever-expanding array of plug types flooding the market. For newcomers, selecting the right plug is a crucial issue. Choosing the wrong plug could result in short circuits or even damage to machinery. This concern is particularly significant in industries like automotive, where plug selection directly impacts the safety of lives and property, leaving no room for error.


Typically, plugs are categorized into male and female combinations. However, Anderson plugs do away with this distinction entirely. There's no differentiation between male and female; as long as the colors match, the plugs will connect seamlessly.

Currently, Anderson plugs available in the market primarily come in three types: single-pole plugs, double-pole plugs, and three-pole plugs.


Single-pole Anderson plugs are single-terminal plugs that allow for arbitrary assembly combinations of positive and negative poles. Common specifications include 45A, 75A, 120A, and 180A.


Double-pole Anderson plugs consist of positive and negative terminal pins on both ends, with no distinction between male and female connectors. Common specifications include 50A, 120A, 175A, and 350A.

Three-pole Anderson plugs feature three terminal pins for positive and negative poles, as well as a ground wire. Common specifications include 50A, 120A, and 175A.


When selecting Anderson plugs for lithium battery charging, it's crucial to match the plug's amperage rating. For amperages ranging from 1A to 50A, opt for a 50A plug; for 50A to 120A, choose a 120A plug; for 120A to 175A, select a 175A plug; and for amperages between 175A and 350A, go for a 350A plug.
