Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What type of wiring do these USB Type-C charging sockets use?

A: Each socket features a 2-pin pigtail bare-wire configuration — a red wire for the positive electrode and a black wire for the negative electrode. The wire ends come pre-stripped for easy soldering and installation onto your circuit board or custom project.

Q: Are these USB-C sockets safe for use in automotive or marine applications?

A: Yes. These Type-C female charging sockets are rated at 5V / 3A and are made with environmentally friendly PVC and silicone materials, making them suitable for automotive, smart products, household appliances, and communication equipment installations. Always ensure your power source is regulated and does not exceed the 3A maximum current rating.

Q: Do these sockets support USB data transfer as well as charging?

A: No — these are 2-pin power-only connectors (positive and negative). They are designed specifically for charging (5V/3A), and do not support USB data transfer protocols, which require additional data pins.

Q: What size are the sockets and will they fit standard panel cutouts?

A: Each socket measures approximately 0.62 × 0.55 inches (1.6 × 1.4 cm). They are designed for panel mounting and fit into tight enclosures. Please measure your cutout before installation and refer to the product images for exact dimensions.
