How to select an AMP CT connector part number
The charts on this page highlight the relationship between the number of contacts (positions) to the part number. Please see the sample chart below
that was designed to help you select the correct part number for your needs. For single digit position to dash numbers, attach the digit to the end
base number. For double digit position to dash numbers, attach the first digit to the front of the part number, add a dash and the base part number,
then follow the base part number with a dash and the second digit.
