http://www.dura-flex.com/pdf/entertainment-power-systems-stage-pin.jpg This is a pointer to an image of a SPC. a non-copyrighted image would be wonderful.
Expansion: Including information about the formally designated standard would be helpful. There may be an infobox format for this, not sure. If not, perhaps one should be created. 48v 21:43, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
I can get a picture of stage pin connectors very soon! I assume you would like both male and female connectors... JWGreen 04:41, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
I've expanded the article quite significantly as well as provided some overall cleanup. There is more that could be added, in particular some citations, manufacturer links, etc. and it wouldn't hurt to create articles for some of the ancillary topics, like Power Distribution Unit, multicircuit cable, and Company Switch. -Thavinator (talk) 07:28, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
Hey in my theatre we call them 2PNG's (2 Pins aNd a Ground) or twopings. Does anyone else say that?KeepOnTruckin 14:09, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
--Never heard that, however SPC's are not widely used in my area (edison is the connector of choice). JWGreen 02:01, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
I disagree with this sentence: "It also prevents the use of common household 15 amp extension cables". one could wire on an spc if they wished. KeepOnTruckin Complain to me | my work here 23:18, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
I just noticed the caption on the top image has been changed to and older stage pin connector. I happen to be the proud owner of that SPC and can tell you that it is only 3 years old... just because the casing is an older style doesn't mean its old... -JWGreen 17:18, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
I switched the two pictures arround. The new photo is much better quality than mine. -JWGreen 04:47, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
The theatre at the college I attend just acquried all of the old lighting from a chaple on campus, but everything has two-pin twistlock. I'm planning to replace it, but I'm curious if anyone else has seen anything like it- a few extention cable came with it too, no connectors are stamped, but one had a box and a duplex two-pin twistlock connector on it, and the GE logo was stamped in the center. -JWGreen (talk) 01:33, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
I saw no reference to the television and film industry in this article. This must be fixed as I suspect that film crews may use these connectors more than it is used on the stage, or at least as frequently. Futhermore, although some of the information seems reliable i see little citation and some info is shaky at best. I may take a crack at some edits, but I think it would be important that SOMEONE add some information about the film industry.75.83.36.180 (talk)mini —Preceding undated comment added 23:44, 3 November 2009 (UTC).
It seems that a lot of this article is taken up by a discussion of cable types and other connectors, and at times seems to take the tone of an instruction manual. I move that this article be completely re-vamped.75.83.36.180 (talk)IA 728 —Preceding undated comment added 23:50, 3 November 2009 (UTC).
