The KT 9 Pin Trailer Plug & Socket is the first Trailer Plug & Socket on the market to contain an in-built 50Amp Connector. This provides the perfect solution for the user who requires a Trailer Plug connection with the ability to also power applicances requiring a 50Amp power connection directly from the vehicle.

The 2 Pins are rated at 50Amps and suitable for use with 8mm₂ Cable (8B&S), while the 7 Pins rated at 35Amps suit 3mm & 4mm cable. Common applications for the KT 50Amp, 2 Pin Trailer Plug & Socket & the KT 9 Pin Trailer Plug & Socket include providing power to camping fridges and other appliances (requiring a 50Amp Power Connection) from your vehicle. It is also recommended to use a fuse in line with one of the circuits.

Each Socket is fitted with a spring loaded dustproof and splash-proof cover to protect internal pins and wiring while the connector is not in use. The Plug & Socket housings are manufactured using a strong UV protected Polycarbonate housing which is virtually indestructible and durable through severe weather conditions.

The 9 Pin Trailer Plug can be connected with:

  • KT 9 Pin Trailer Socket
  • KT 50 Amp Trailer Socket (without the 7 Pins being used)
  • KT 7 Pin Flat Trailer Socket (without the 50Amp, 2 Pins being used)
