While taking another look at the new Connector Cable this morning, I noticed a rubber grommet at the end of the loom on the lug side of the cable. This grommet does not exist on the wartime Connectors, Twin, 5-ft, No. C1 used with the Remote Supply. The battery terminals on this supply are located on the lower chassis, outside of the area enclosed by the Cover Assembly of the supply.
So maybe this later version of the Connector Cable had to pass through a cover/door/panel on whatever piece of equipment it was intended for, in order to reach the terminals it had to be hooked upon. Maybe it was the addition of this rubber grommet that prompted issuing a new ZA Number?
