Outlet form factor or ordering info

Hi there,


I'm trying to get another USB outlet to put in this bank next to the first - is there a particular form factor that I should look for that matches this style, or is it specific to each manufacturer? This is an FP40.

First important lesson to learn about boat maintenance: Almost nothing like this is unique to the boat builder. They just do not have the time or money to design and manufacture parts like this. If you don’t have an owner’s group who can help, and the builder won’t talk, you have to do a bit of sleuthing, and that can be frustrating.

It can be difficult to tell from a single photo, but that looks like the Vimar line of modular electric switches and outlets that is distributed by Imtra. It’s actually a quite elegant solution to the kind of multiple power sources we can run into on boats.

Hope that saves some search frustration!
