Euro 13 pin

[Stephen_374341239]

Hi My euro 13 pin connector is getting pin burn on some of the little pins. Also the little pins are not made out of brass like the old 12n+s plug and socket if this is progress they can keep it.

Sounds as though something is wrong somewhere. I've had the same 13 pin connection for 15 years without a problem.

Perhaps some of the return (earth) circuits are incorrectly wired.

Good point, Roger. Maybe earth for pins 3, 11, and 13 were all combined to go through one of the three instead of having three separate earth leads, as should be the case.
