Does anyone recognise this connector???

Guys,
Do any of you recognise this connector, the one i am interested in is the bottom left and is the black 2 pin connector. It is a 2 pin input from a generator to charge batteries, however i dont have the male end of the plug on the correct generator from the site this is at and am looking to get one.

It is a feature on Royal Observer Corp underground monitoring posts and as so could be a military item used by the ROC (most kit/fixtures/fittings was). The other 2 connectors are an airline for a pump up mast and an aerial connector.

Does anyone recognise the large black plug with 2 pins?



cheers

No idea of the scale, but I'm thinking "Bulgin" plug. Does it have an internal "key" for alignment?

It looks like it could be a Reyrolle connector. Still in business so Google their website.

48mm diameter (thats to the very edge of the socket including the screw threads), 45mm height, 20mm pin spacing (measured from the centre of each pin). The pins are different diameters to ensure polarity is correct

Ruminating on this, it might be a Niphan socket.

it is indeed, i *think* we have tracked it down as a NIPHAN 6663 socket. Waiting for the compnay (who are still trading) to send a data sheet so I have the dimensions

Yep I'd say a Niphan same as used on the old Sodium lighting kit that was strewn in endless strings around every flying station
