[QUOTE="Tim McCulloch, post: 27052, member: 67"] Re: 50Amp Range plug options Soldering violates Code for a couple of different reasons. I suggest using torque paint on the screw once tightened down *the second time*. As for the general quality of plug, remember that for the most part, these connectors aren't designed for repeated mating or transportation. You may well have to subject the connector to routine inspection and maintenance, or spend $100. So, another SM57 or keeping the power on (or not starting a fire)? I'm not suggesting the Hubbel is superior (it might not be), but that in this instance a program of continuous inspection is justified until you find that other parts work better or that your inspection interval can be modified. Have fun, good luck. Tim Mc [/QUOTE]
