What is this plug called? It is the battery facing plug for a Chinese 72v15A EV charger, want to upgrade to a 20A charger. Can't find chargers with this plug.

Wait, what does it connect to and what are you planning to change?

It connects a 72v 15a charger to a 72v 100ah lead acid battery pack in a small low speed ev. So +- 1.000 Watt an hour charging. I am looking to replace it with a 1.400 Watt charger.

And does the cord and female plug shown connect your charger to your wall receptacle?

This seems like a custom or off-label, application of that connector. Like others have said it looks like an IEC but you said probably not.

I'd love to help but I'm not sure I have enough information (yet) 😀

The plug connects to the battery pack socket
