The AT-series is also suitable for use in lighting fixtures, gaming machines, and audio/video equipment.

The working principle for the ATM04-08PC series of rectangular connectors is easy to understand. In this series, the pins of the connectors are designed to easily insert into the female receptacle. Once the pins are inserted, the unit is secured in place with a latched cover. The metal contacts of the pins make contact with the corresponding contacts in the receptacle, allowing for electrical power to be supplied from the male connector to the female receptacle. This contact between the two components forms an electrical connection, creating a safe and reliable power source.

Overall, the ATM04-08PC series of rectangular connectors offers a reliable power source for a variety of applications. Its robust housing construction and corrosion-resistance pins make it a great choice for any application that requires power connectivity. Additionally, its ease of use and secure locking capabilities make it a great choice for applications such as medical, automotive, lighting, and audio/video equipment.
