Does anyone have some spare ones they want to sell, or know where I could get one from?
Cheers!
You can get the connectors from RS - unfortunately the pins come in packs of 50 or 100 - I think I have some though, as I was intending to make some slightly longer cables but haven't got round to it. Will have a look tomorrow.
RS part numbers for connectors :
114-8024 shell (http://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/heavy-duty-connectors/1148024/)
114-8002 insert for male contacts) (http://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/heavy-duty-connectors/1148002/)
114-8018 insert for female contacts (http://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/heavy-duty-connectors/1148018/)
156-7267 male contact pk50 (http://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/heavy-duty-connectors/1567267/)
156-7273 female contact pk50 (http://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/heavy-duty-connectors/1567273/)
Farnell part numbers - do the contacts in packs of 10, but more expensive.

Shell for sockets (http://uk.farnell.com/harting/0921-007-3131/insert-female-han7d-crimp/dp/151846)
Shell for male contacts (http://uk.farnell.com/harting/0921-007-3031/insert-male-han7d-crimp/dp/151845)
If someone wants some contacts I have a pack of 50 each - will do a set of 7 pins and 7 sockets for £10 inc UK post, Paypal only.
I've got some spare, various lengths.
PM me.
Hi fcb - PM'd you...
Just to confirm the 'ingredients' of a cable...
Male end uses:
7x crimp pins, Harting part "09 15 000 6101" - available in one-offs from Mouser (617-09-15-000-6101) and Farnell (165-3807) for about 50p each.
Male Insert, Harting part "09 21 007 3031" - widely available
Connector Shell, Harting part "09 20 003 0420" - widely available
Cable clamp, Harting part "09 00 000 5164" - stocked by Mouser and Farnell
Female end uses:
7x crimp pins, Harting part "09 15 000 6201" - available in one-offs from Mouser (617-09-15-000-6201) and Farnell (170-4240) for about 50p each.
Female Insert, Harting part "09 21 007 3131" - widely available
Connector Shell, Harting part "09 20 003 0420" - widely available
Cable clamp, Harting part "09 00 000 5164" - stocked by Mouser and Farnell
Cable used is 7 core (6 + Earth) unscreened YY-type cable, 1.5mm2 per conductor, ideally 10mm OD. Farnell part 189-1214 is about right.
You only need about 1/2 meter of cable to make up a lead for interconnecting adjacent feeders.
Connectors are wired 1-1, with 6 regular wires connecting pins 1-6, earth on pin 7 and no connection on pin 8.
Don't forget to double-check connections, as these cables carry a mix of mains and RS232!
