This VL connector is designed for wire-to-
wire and wire-to-board 6.2mm pitch
connector corresponding to large current.
Secondary retainer, which prevents from
insufficient insertion of contact and coming
off contact, may use and large current
circuit can be connected certainly and
safety.

Note: Do not branch in parallel current which exceeds the rated current (eg. more than
17A in the case of 3 circuits with AWG #12). If branched in parallel, current
imbalance or other problems may develop. If it is absolutely necessary to branch
such a large current in parallel, design the circuits without causing any imbalance
and provide an extra margin for each circuit.
