    Eaton Magnum DS secondary block pin/socket type

    Testing a bunch of Eaton Mag DS breakers. I'm working on making up some GF defeat, zone interlock, motor charging plugs. I was able to find the plastic connector for dirt cheap but I don't know what the wiring pins/sockets are called. I figured someone here should.

    See parts catalogue:
    https://www.eaton.com/content/dam/ea...td013013en.pdf

    I assume table 33 and 34 are the parts you are looking for, specifically
    Secondary connection PIN (female) part# 73479CK11G

    That is exactly what I was talking about. I was hoping to find a generic for it rather than going through Eaton. when I search that Eaton PN I can't find it for sale. The only thing I have been able to come up with so far is the "repair kit" (table 22, MSECTOOL) but they want $275 bucks for it.

    I found the generic block available for $15 bucks from the supplier that eaton gets them from. AMP 213973-1

    got it!

    This link is for the Tyco AMP catalog
    many many eaton plugs used in eaton breakers/gear in this catalog that will be a fraction of the price, you can order only exactly whats needed.
