Does anybody here know an aftermarket source/ part number for the Molex style plug n the end of the 180w Powerhouse transformer?

Thanks in advance.

I am combing thorugh various supply houses, but there are hundreds of pages of connectors.....

I've seen plugs like that on RC cars, maybe try somewhere like Hobbytown USA.

search the forum about 2-3 months back gunnrunner john gave me the page in the mouser [i think]catalogue as a link. There are male and female, the part i ordered was 0019091032-nd

Allied doesn't carry what you are after.

I looked up those numbers a while back, as Ralph says, do a search and you'll find the references. They're standard Molex parts, I happen to have bins of them left over from a project in the 80's.

John,

Are you planning on selling them? I could use 6 to connect between my ZWs and some Direct Lock-ons.

Thank everyone.

I found what I needed at a local electronic's store. I didn't know what to call them. I knew Molex, but not the type name, i.e., 3 position plug or 3 position receptacle.

All is well!

How does the 3 hole molex female connector wire out on the 180 Watt PowerHouse? If I were to connect a 3 pin male molex connector to the PowerHouse and run two wires off of it for AC hot and common; which of the three pins is Common, AC hot, and what is the third pin for? No connect? Assume orientation is pin 1 at angled end and pin 3 is at the flat end.

There is a cable set, Lionel (6-14194) which also has an adaptor to parallel two transformers. I use this cable assembly to attach two PH 135's to (2) TPC 400's

Note the twisted cable attachment to the right TPC 400, (Silver box). The molex connectors are inside the horizontal cable tray. Bottom of picture.
