Treat this requirements as three individual circuits - with each pin capable
of handling a 13amp power feed and a 13amp return. The mate-n-lok is not a
high temperature connector so you would need to bring the wires in from the
firewall side through a fire shield and then connectorise inside the
cockpit. An alternative is to use a metal shelled connector mounted to the
firewall.

I will soon need to run a cable through the firewall to my
bus/fuse block. Has anyone come across or used a connector
at the firewall for this purpose capable of taking 20 amp or
so. I could get away with less but want to allow for
addition of a landing light later, and possibly a wing
leveller. I have wondered about using 2 cables for this
through a mate n lock connector which is good for 13 amp
only. I would appreciate any comments on either approach.
Thanks
