Abstract
A power supply connector includes a cable receptacle, a front bulkhead insulator and a rear bulkhead insulator. The bulkhead insulators are mounted on the cable receptacle and the power supply chassis. At least one O ring is disposed between the front and rear bulkhead insulators, to seal out water. The front bulkhead insulator includes a stepped portion that mates with a stepped portion on the rear bulkhead insulator. The front bulkhead insulator provides an elongated path from the chassis to the cable receptacle. Also, an O ring is disposed between the cable receptacle and the front bulkhead insulator, to seal out water.
