My layout consists of a 4'x8' sheet of plywood and a 4'x4' sheet of plywood with a wood frame that join together in a shape of an "L".

 

I would like to add powered accessories on the 4'x4' section but would like to wire them through the 4'x8' section.  I have made it so these 2 tables can disconnect for storage.

 

Does anyone have suggestions for a "quick connector" that I could use to electrically join the 2 tables together when they are placed side by side.  I am looking for something that I don't have to splice everytime I put the 2 boards together as I am building frames for the boards and am installing 1/4" plywood on the bottom so that all the wiring is contained.

 

I would appreciate any help you could offer on a "plug and play" connector.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

These are good for high current (select the current you need) and plug together quickly. They don't lose tension. They are available that can be mounted on the end of cables in a good varity of connector pin numbers.

Anderson Powerpoles.  Totally adjustable, totally expandable, totally compatable.  Been using them for 12 years on all finished jobs.  Replaces Jones connectors on large module setups.

 

Many unique features and gizmos make the completed job  very finished.

 

Buy only the pieces you want.  Many different colors help keep circuits readily identified.

 

Available at all "Ham Radio" stores.  A standard of the ham operators who routinely connect and disconect equipment.

 

The best site for the product inventory is at Powerwerx.com

 

the 15-30-45 amp series is what I use for 10ga to 22 ga wire
