Near Intersection of I-35 & I-90 Southern Mn. | The AMP 3 blade connector is very common but they are expensive. I use two pole weatherpack connectors. Each tractor has several 2 pole weatherpak towers permanently wired to them. I always use Pin A for the power and Pin B for the ground. Each tractor has two or four of these. Some are keyed power (orange wire) and the others are "hot" (red wire). I can easily install/remove/move any devices such as scale heads, cameras, controllers etc. since they are all wired the same. My color code of orange and red allows me to connect them whichever way I choose.
Several of these are in tractors with the Deere power strips. These strips have some nice stud terminals on the back. I connect my adapter harness to those studs and don't need to mess with Deere's plan although the strip is still present.
Since I used to work as a Tech, I had access to the weatherpack parts and tools.

Is the AMP connector the industry standard?
