<p>Powersafe connectors enable high power transmission (over 500 volts) while being 100% safe for the users. &nbsp;The Powersafe connectors are derived from the D38999 connectors and qualified according to VG96944 standards.<br>Their main benefit is to provide user safety with a first-to-mate earth contact directly linked to the shell. The last-to-mate/first-to-break pilot contact allows the mating and unmating without power.</p> <p>For more information, please contact our <a href="https://support.amphenol-socapex.com/hc/en-gb/requests/new" target="_blank">Technical Support Team</a> who can assist you in selecting the Power connector that suits you best.</p> <p><a href="/products/io-connectors/38999-series/powersafe-vg96944" target="_blank">Click here</a> to obtain more information on Powersafe connectors.&nbsp;</p>
