Saf-D-Grid®

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Anderson Power Products® has been a leader in the connector industry since 1953. The Saf-D-Grid® connector system, introduced in 2009, is designed for 380-400 VDC power distribution systems, providing safe connections for various devices up to 600 VDC. It is compatible with the IEC 320 C13 and C14 AC connection system and is UL rated for disconnecting a 400 VDC, 20 amp load.
Specifications
The Saf-D-Grid® connectors handle up to 40A and 600V DC or AC, offering greater power density compared to the IEC 320 C13 & C14 system. They are made from RoHS compliant materials, including high-temperature nylon and polycarbonate housings, stainless steel springs, and copper contacts with silver plating. The connectors are hot plug rated for 250 cycles at 400V and 20A load, with a dielectric withstanding voltage of 3,300V and an operating temperature range of -20°C to 80°C.
Safety Features
The connectors minimize the risk of personal contact with hazardous voltage, passing UL & IEC finger probe tests. They contain arcing within the housings and feature a first mate, last break ground contact for safety. An integral latch prevents accidental disconnection.
Mechanical Specifications
The connectors have a contact retention force of 20 lbf (89 N) and a plug latch retention force of 20 lbf (89 N). They are durable for up to 5,000 cycles without load and are designed to withstand mechanical shock and vibration as per IEC standards.
Temperature and Ratings
The connectors are rated under UL 1977 and IEC 61984, with specific ratings for different wire sizes and conditions of use. They are designed for both current interruption and disconnect only applications.
Tooling and Assembly
APP recommends specific tooling for compliance with UL, CSA, and other safety agencies. Using unapproved tooling voids the connector warranty. Various receptacle kits and contacts are available for different termination methods, including crimp and solder.
Drawings and Dimensions
Detailed drawings and dimensions are provided for different receptacle types, including panel cutouts and contact dimensions.
Power Cords
Various plug types are available, including wide "T" latch, small latch, and right angle "T" latch plugs, all compatible with the receptacle types. Common cable types used in Saf-D-Grid® power cords are specified for different wire sizes.
Cable Specifications
Detailed specifications for various cable types, including SJT, ST, SOOW, HVCT, H05VVF, and 60245 IEC 57, are provided. Each type is described with its voltage rating, approvals, jacket material, conductor insulation, and coloring notes.
Power Connection Design
The document outlines a simplified power connection design featuring a wide 'T' latch plug and ultra-short receptacle, ensuring touch-safe connectors.
Product Listings
Detailed tables list various power cords, specifying length, description, standards, part numbers, and packaging options.
DC Electrical Power Distribution Systems
The document discusses the advantages of DC systems over AC systems, highlighting reduced electrical losses and higher reliability. It mentions the standardization efforts by APP® in developing safety standards for low voltage DC systems.
DC Arcing and Safety
The document addresses the challenges of DC arcing, noting that the Saf-D-Grid® connector uses specific design features to mitigate damage from DC arcs.
Applications

DC Electrical Power Distribution Systems DC Efficiency DC electrical distribution systems have a basic advantage over AC systems. By eliminating AC to DC conversions a DC distribution system is simpler than an AC system. With less electrical and electronic devices, a DC system can be designed with lower electrical losses and higher reliability. These advantages are further multiplied for systems having DC energy storage for backup power or peak shaving, or a local DC energy source such as photovoltaic cells, wind turbines or fuel cells. APP® has been a leader in the development of system and...
