Delta Electronics 06AN2D AC Power Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Delta Electronics 06AN2D is an IEC 320-C14 power entry connector receptacle module designed for panel-mount, snap-in applications. This unfiltered commercial connector features integrated switch on-off functionality, fuse accommodation, and quick connect termination. The part is currently active in production with 927 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified based on matching connector style, mounting configuration, electrical characteristics, and mechanical compatibility within the IEC 320-C14 standard.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 06AN2D is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Matching Criteria:

• Connector Style: IEC 320-C14
• Connector Type: Receptacle, Male Blades - Module
• Number of Positions: 3
• Mounting Type: Panel Mount, Snap-In
• Filter Type: Unfiltered - Commercial
• Switch Features: Switch On-Off
• Fuse Accommodation: Yes
• Panel Thickness Compatibility: 0.040" ~ 0.070" (1.02mm ~ 1.78mm)

Secondary Compatibility Factors:

• Panel Cutout Dimensions: Rectangular - 66.00mm x 27.00mm (tolerance: ±0.04mm acceptable)
• Termination Type: Quick Connect (with varying blade sizes)
• Regulatory Compliance: CSA, SEMKO, UL certifications

All four substitute parts (Qualtek 761-18/004, 762-18/002, 762-18/003, 761-18/003) meet the primary matching criteria. Variations in termination blade size (0.157" vs. 0.250") and flammability rating documentation do not affect functional substitution within the IEC 320-C14 standard.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All four Qualtek substitute parts are functionally equivalent to the Delta Electronics 06AN2D within the IEC 320-C14 standard. Selection between substitutes should be based on:

Termination Blade Size Compatibility:

• Qualtek 761-18/004 and 761-18/003: Quick Connect 0.157" (3.9mm) blade terminals
• Qualtek 762-18/002 and 762-18/003: Quick Connect 0.250" (6.3mm) blade terminals

Choose the substitute based on your existing wiring harness or PCB termination pad specifications. Both blade sizes are standard within commercial IEC 320-C14 applications.

Regulatory Compliance: All substitutes carry CSA, SEMKO, and UL certifications. The Delta 06AN2D includes additional CE certification. If CE marking is a design requirement, the Delta part remains the primary choice; however, CE compliance may be achievable through system-level certification if substitutes are used.

Inventory Considerations: Qualtek 761-18/004 offers the highest stock availability (4781 units), followed by 761-18/003 (4119 units). Both use 0.157" termination blades. If supply chain continuity is a priority, these options provide extended availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute a Qualtek 762-18/002 for the Delta 06AN2D in an existing design?

A: Yes, provided your wiring harness or PCB termination pads accommodate the 0.250" (6.3mm) quick connect blade size. The Qualtek 762-18/002 matches all critical mechanical and electrical parameters: IEC 320-C14 connector style, 3-position receptacle configuration, panel-mount snap-in mounting, on-off switch, fuse accommodation, and panel thickness compatibility. Verify termination blade size compatibility before substitution.

Q: What is the difference between the 761 and 762 series Qualtek connectors?

A: The primary difference is termination blade size. Series 761 (761-18/004, 761-18/003) uses 0.157" (3.9mm) quick connect blades, while Series 762 (762-18/002, 762-18/003) uses 0.250" (6.3mm) quick connect blades. Both series are mechanically and functionally compatible with the Delta 06AN2D within the IEC 320-C14 standard. Selection depends on your existing termination infrastructure.

Q: Are there any certifications I should be aware of when substituting?

A: The Delta 06AN2D carries CE, CSA, SEMKO, and UL certifications. All Qualtek substitutes carry CSA, SEMKO, and UL certifications. If your application requires CE marking, confirm whether system-level CE certification covers the substituted component or if the Delta part is mandatory for compliance documentation.

Q: What panel cutout dimensions should I use for installation?

A: The Delta 06AN2D specifies a rectangular cutout of 66.00mm x 27.00mm. All Qualtek substitutes specify 66.04mm x 27.00mm, a difference of 0.04mm. This tolerance is within standard mechanical manufacturing specifications and does not affect panel installation. Use the 66.00mm x 27.00mm dimension for new panel designs; existing panels cut for the Delta part will accommodate all substitutes.

Q: Is the fuse holder included with these connectors?

A: No. All parts listed (Delta 06AN2D and all Qualtek substitutes) accommodate a fuse but do not include the fuse cartridge. The fuse holder drawer is integrated into the connector module. Obtain appropriate fuse cartridges separately based on your circuit protection requirements.

Q: Can I mix termination blade sizes in the same application?

A: No. Maintain consistent termination blade size throughout your wiring harness and PCB design. Mixing 0.157" and 0.250" blade sizes will result in poor electrical contact and potential connector failure. Select either the 761 series (0.157") or 762 series (0.250") and use consistently across all connector installations.
