Re: Powerpole compatibilty

15A, 30A, and 45A will all mate together. The only difference is in  
the ferrule that accepts the wire.  The higher amp ones accept larger  
wires.
15A accepts wire #20 to #16 wires.  30A accepts #16 to #12 wires.  
45A accepts #14 to #10 wires.  The housing is the same across these  
three and they will mate with each other.

Regards,
Raj

I've been told the 45A contacts are crimp only. The 15A and 30A
contacts can be soldered.

The 45A CAN be soldered AFTER they've been crimped over the wire.
