Anyone know the amperage rating of that socket? I am hoping 30A, but want to make sure....

(Thought I had posted this already, but I don't see it in my subs lists....)

Don't know, but if you can find the fuse, you have the answer.

Mr.Bill

Joe, It should be listed on the fuse cover.
Google says 20 amp.

I couldn't find it when I searched Google,, but I dug out my manuals and found it in there....Mr. Bill is correct, 20 Amps. Sure wish it was 30 Amps..

Fortunately, the device I want to run, only draws 8 amps, at full draw.

I'll wire my tap, when the console is out to install the new Kenwood DNX-571HD

Mr.Bill

What are you going to run that you need 30a?

MCharlie

Amplifier for my 2 meter radio, and, an inverter to charge my extra batteries while driving.

Mr.Bill

You might as well also install a microwave.

The plastic plugs melt at less than 20 amps. 30 amps will never work with that type of plug. The wire to the plug is also too small for 20 amps.
