12 volt receptical in dash
 

I have a 12 volt receptical in my dash that has a screw on cap, but inside there are two flat tabs and it looks like it is a push and turn lock plug that goes in it. Does anyone know about these. I think it came on the boat from Wellcraft.

I'm burning up the internet and not finding anything to plug into.

May have to rip it out and find something else to go back in. May be a multi plug type.

I traced out the wire and found they are disconnected from the fuse panel but my cureosity is still at work and I would like to know about these recepticals.

Surely some of you have seen these in the past. Here are some photos.

I just looked through McMaster_Carr and didn't see it. If they don't have it, I doubt you;ll find it. Yank that puppy and put something else in there.

No mfg name or number.

2 pole twist lock.

Could it be a place to plug the 12 volt lead into from a charger?

I like the fact that it is locking, If I where to replace it I would like a locking type to put back. I always seem to have a slight loose connection in the regular type, just a small bump and what ever you have plugged in is now off.
