I have an 18A continuous and 20A surge 13.8V power supply with just
screw terminals. I plan to put it in a box with a power switch a meter
and a few banana plugs. Problem is the highest current rating banana
plug I can find is 15A. I see other power supplies that have a single
set of banana plugs that are rated at 40A, so where do I find some rated
that high? Or is the 15A rating just VERY conservative?
