Appendix: RD Current Connector Locking Mechanism

The Radian RD-2X and RD-3X (120A) Dytronic Standards utilize 6mm locking style connectors
for the current inputs.
Note: These connectors are very specialized and feature beveled edges and a locking ring. Do
NOT use straight ¼" current connector studs. Radian offers various jumpers and adaptors to fit
most applications.
When connecting to the current inputs, insert the 6mm current plugs slowly into the current input
receptacles on the RD standard. Do not use excessive pressure when inserting. Only a minimal
amount of force is required to engage the locking mechanism.

NOTE: Pushing the current plug too hard may engage and then disengage the locking mechanism
in one move. To prevent this, gently push the plug into the receptacle and allow the lock to
engage.
Once the locking mechanism is engaged, pull on the current plug outward. You should NOT be
able to remove the plug.
