POWER TRIPLE LOCK CONNECTOR SYSTEM
The TE Connectivity POWER TRIPLE LOCK connector system offers high performance with a functional design, providing enhanced connectivity for power and signal applications. It features three methods of connectivity for 3-in-1 reliability: cap and plug latch together, Connector Position Assurance (CPA) to prevent accidental disengagement, and Terminal Position Assurance (TPA) to ensure terminals are fully seated.
The system supports standard 105°C, high temperature 150°C, and glow wire applications, with options for four keying configurations and multiple colors to prevent mismating. It accommodates up to 15 positions with 6mm spacing.
Key benefits include an audible 'lock' latch for positive feedback, ribs to prevent wire snagging, optional CPA for secure mating, and optional TPA for enhanced contact retention. The connector is available in three housing material options: Standard 105°C (Natural, Purple, Blue, Yellow), High Temperature 150°C (Light Gray, Red, Black, Natural), and Glow Wire (Dark Gray, Brown, Green, Orange).
With a 6.0mm centerline spacing, the POWER TRIPLE LOCK connector offers a reduced size, low mating force, and low insertion force. The family includes panel mount caps and board mount headers in vertical and right-angle styles.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What are the operating temperature requirements?
The POWER TRIPLE LOCK connector offers all V-O materials, with standard product made from a PBT material, rated at 105°C. For high temperature applications, like cooking, materials are available for 150°C.
Q2. What is the benefit of choosing glow wire housings?
The POWER TRIPLE LOCK connector offers glow wire housings that allow manufacturers of home appliances to comply with the IEC 60335-1 standard.
Q3. What are the current and voltage requirements for your application?
The POWER TRIPLE LOCK connector has a maximum current rating of 20 amps per line and is rated for 600 VAC or VDC. Refer to product specification 108-106118 (plugs/caps) / 108-32090 (headers) for de-rating chart.
Q4. What are the wire size requirements?
The POWER TRIPLE LOCK connector can accommodate single wire ranges from 12 AWG to 22 AWG, and double wires from 2X18 AWG to 2X22 AWG.
Q5. In what circuit count is the POWER TRIPLE LOCK connector offered?
The POWER TRIPLE LOCK connector is available from 2 to 15 positions, with both free hanging and panel mount housings; the printed circuit header version from 2 to 5 positions.
Q6. Do I need to use the Connector Position Assurance (CPA) device and the Terminal Position Assurance (TPA) device?
The CPA and TPA devices are offered for this POWER TRIPLE LOCK connector as options. Many customers are now asking for these devices in some or all of their applications as added security to help ensure the connector halves remain together once mated and ensure contact retention in each circuit cavity.
Q7. Do you offer Terminal Position Assurance (TPA) devices for Matrix (3 row) housings?
Yes. The Matrix housings are designed to accept 1 single row and 1 dual row TPA.
Q8. What connector keying options are offered for the Power Triple Lock connector?
The POWER TRIPLE LOCK connector is available in 4 keying options for all connector ranges. This means that the same position size connector can be used in different harnesses, but with different keying to prevent mismating and different colors to facilitate identification.
