I need help identifying the female plug part of this connector. Spacing looks to be 5 (5.08?)mm between pins. The keying of the flange is different from the standard 4-pin phoenix-type terminal plug and I cannot find it anywhere.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello michael.hagan - welcome to the Forum Community. I’m sorry, I wasn’t able to identify a female connector that would mate with your connector. You may have to contact the manufacturer of your equipment to find that connector. Maybe one of my colleagues will be able to help.

I browsed through those, it seems the keying on those connectors is opposite - see the images below. There are 4 flanged pieces on the male side, but only 3 on the female ones suggested.

Manufacturer is not very helpful on this. I am still trying that avenue.
