Grace Inertia Connectors offer a .137” [3.5 mm] centerline line pitch which uses an inertia locking mechanism and standard locking which operate simultaneously to prevent semi-mating from occurring. The connector will not allow electrical contact until the connector is fully locked-on and therefore supports secure mating operation even in difficult environments.
This product is excellent for use in large-sized household electrical appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines and dispensers. Moreover, the minimum 3.5 mm pitch satisfies the requirement of a compact connector while allowing wire as large as 18 AWG [.963 mm²]. The GIC connector is rated for 300 VAC with a 7 A contact rating. Terminal Position Assurance allows for the proper positioning of contacts and will assure that they will not back out of the housing. The TPA option is available for GIC.
