1. Product Introduction
4mm Male to Male Banana Plug Cable is a high current test cable with 4mm banana plugs on both ends for fast and safe connection in laboratories, electronic testing, audio equipment and other scenarios.
Interface type: 4mm standard banana plug (compliant with IEC 60085/IEC 61010).
Conductor material: high purity oxygen-free copper (OFC) or multi-strand tinned copper wire to ensure low resistance and high current carrying capacity.
Typical applications: multimeter probes, amplifier connections, power supply testing, battery charging and discharging, etc.
2. Core advantages
| Advantages |
Description |
| High current carrying capacity |
Supports 10A~30A continuous current (depending on the line of sight) to meet high power testing needs. |
| Quick plug and unplug |
Spring pin or spiral locking design ensures stable contact and plug and unplug life of >5,000 times. |
| Low contact resistance |
Gold/nickel plated contacts (resistance <5mΩ) to reduce signal loss. |
| Safe insulation |
High temperature resistant PVC/silicone outer skin (UL94V-0 flame retardant grade) to prevent short circuit. |
3. Typical application scenarios
Electronic testing: connecting multimeter, oscilloscope, power load meter.
Audio system: quick wiring of amplifier and speaker (replacing traditional terminal).
New energy testing: interconnection of power battery charging and discharging equipment.
Educational experiment: construction of electronic engineering teaching circuit.

1. Purchase suggestions
Current demand: small current (<5A): 22AWG; large current (>10A): 12-16AWG.
Shell material: PVC (economical) / silicone (high temperature resistant 200ºC).
Length selection: 0.5m (desktop test), 1-2m (equipment room), 3m+ (customized).
2. Safety use guide
Overload is prohibited: industrial-grade terminal blocks must be used for more than 30A.
Prevent short circuit: make sure the device is powered off before plugging and unplugging to avoid exposed contacts touching metal.
Regular inspection: Use a multimeter to measure the contact resistance (if it increases abnormally, it needs to be replaced).
3. FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q1: Can banana plugs be used for high current applications?
A: Yes, but you need to choose a high current model (such as 10A or above) and ensure that the plug and the socket are in good contact.
Q2: Is the 4mm banana plug universal?
A: Basically universal, but some special equipment (such as some audio interfaces) may have different specifications, and you need to confirm the match.
Q3: How to clean the plug after oxidation?
A: You can wipe it with alcohol or lightly polish it with fine sandpaper to restore conductivity.
Q4: Can it be used for alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC)?
A: Yes, but you need to ensure that the voltage and current are within the rated range of the plug.
4. Summary
4mm Male to Male banana plug cable is a universal and efficient connection solution for electronic testing and audio systems. When purchasing, you need to match the specifications according to the current, voltage, and use environment. Prefer the model with gold-plated contacts + silicone skin to improve durability. For high current applications, be sure to verify the wire diameter carrying capacity.
High-quality flame-retardant materials: polymer materials have the advantages of flame retardancy and high temperature resistance; phosphor bronze gold-plated/tin-plated, with the advantages of wear resistance and corrosion resistance. High-tech anti-oxidation technology: improve the anti-oxidation and anti-corrosion capabilities, and maintain the characteristics of the metal surface.
Using thickened oxygen free copper wire core effectively reduces resistance and makes the circuit less prone to overheating. Simultaneously coated with a fireproof layer, it remains safe and durable even in high-temperature and dry environments. Bold thread body, sturdy and resistant to bending, will not break after long-term use.
Electronic testing: connecting multimeter, oscilloscope, power load meter.
Audio system: quick wiring of amplifier and speaker (replacing traditional terminal).
New energy testing: interconnection of power battery charging and discharging equipment.
Educational experiment: construction of electronic engineering teaching circuit.
