TheFrenchConnection Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I hope there will be an attached pic - not sure how to do it! It's a white, 240v, shielded, three pin male with side clips used to connect to the mains distribution board on our Challenger. There"s a spare female connector on the board and I'm adding an addition run for the bike chargers in the garage. Thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keithl Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Mike, I've emailed you with my email address so send me the photos and I'll post them for you. Keith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinhood Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 My suspicion is that it may be a Wago connector, but there are a multitude of types/designs, so a picture would help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul2 Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 It looks like a Mate 'n' Lok connector to me. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robinhood Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Definitely a 3-way Mate-N-Lok (MNL) item. See here for example: (but widely available elsewhere) https://www.12voltplanet.co.uk/mate-n-lok-universal-connector-pair-3-way.html Can't say I've seen them generally in use for mains connections (12 volt all over the place) but I can't see any reason why not (but just check what you're plugging to is mains voltage). You may have to buy the pair to get what you want, but it will hardly break the bank! Edited to add: Whilst the unit might not be the same as yours, the following link confirms CBE are in the habit of using MNL connectors for mains distribution boxes. https://leisurelines.net/output-plug-set-for-ds120-2041-p.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFrenchConnection Posted May 22, 2022 Author Share Posted May 22, 2022 Many thanks everyone for all the trouble you've taken. I've had trouble tracking one down here in France (and post-Brexit getting anything from the UK is a nightmare) so I have broken into the feed to a socket which won't be used at all now that we have charging facilities in the garage and taken the feed from there. Thanks again for all your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinhood Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 Somewhat too late for you, but there appear to be listings on eBay France (albeit sourced in Italy) which would offer (including delivery) at under €10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
