Plug and socket suggestion needed
I have a control box with a 2 wire cable going out to a SPST switch that
switches 120V AC line. I want to put a socket on in the box and a plug on the wire with the switch so I can disconnect it when it isn't needed. The easiest thing I can think of would be to use a standard 2 prong outlet and plug. The problem with that is, someone might find the cable with the switch and plug on the end, wonder what it does, plug it in and flip the switch. Best case, they trip a breaker, worst case something starts on fire. So I don't like that idea. I have been searching Mouser and Digikey and the only other panel mount socket and matching plug I have found are the round ones that have from two on up to 100 or maybe more conductors. Even the 2 conductor versions are around $30 for the plug and socket. I was hoping to spend a lot less money than that.
