[MRCA] Can anyone ID this connector?

[Ray Fantini]

Almost all the APC UPS systems use those connectors between the battery system and the inverter, that looks a lot like the one that’s used in the smaller inverters like the 1200 watt series that’s rated for 40 amps across the connector. The larger size like the 2200 watt  uses a 60 amp connector that a bit larger. For a while it was cheaper to just throw out the UPS systems when the batteries failed after a couple years but gel cell batteries got cheaper so in the last five years or so have been replacing batteries in the UPS systems.
Think the best source for them is to look at all the electronic recyclers and pull them from dead UPS systems. The smaller 1000 and 1200 watt consumer ones may have the same connector.
