Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Ladies and gents.... I give you the Gill-SouthEaster Standard for DC plugs (GSSD#000)!

After extensive research involving several minutes on Google and this forum, the following is found to be an appropriate standard for plug sockets for DC systems:

Two flat pins one above the other, and at ninety degrees to each other. The horizontal pin shall be negative, and the vertical positive. Example is Clipsal part# 492/32

Now we all we need to do is work out something for 12V/24V and maybe 36V...sigh.
