I have equipment with two sizes of military connectors for the power line
cord
MS3102A-14S-7P
MS3102A-16S-5P
Pin B on both is ground on 99% of the gear.
(Some early TMC gear has 16S-5P pin C as ground!)
So which is the hot (black) and neutral (white) line connection?
All the Navy gear I have has both sides switched and both sides fused so
there is no difference.
Do you have any gear with only one side fused? I assume that will be in the
hot lead. I have one piece of NSA gear with only one fuse which is in the
Pin A line (14S-7P connector).
Opinions backed by experience or documents are welcome!
I want to make sure all my power cords are wired up the same way and
interchangeable so I don't make a sparky mistake some time (I have already
modified those early TMC pieces).
