Narva 82042BL 7 Pin Flat Plastic Trailer Socket

The 82042BL is Narva's 7 pin flat trailer socket, the vehicle side half of the standard Australian flat plug setup. Each pole is rated at 15A at 12V and the Quickfit housing closes with a threaded end cap, so there are no small screws to drop on the ground.

When a socket needs replacing

Flat sockets live at the back of the car in road spray and dust. The usual sign is a trailer with one indicator dead or tail lights that flicker over bumps, caused by corroded terminals or a cracked housing. A new socket with clean terminals brings the circuit back.

Specifications

Wiring it up

Strip each wire just enough to sit under the terminal, follow the pin chart printed in the socket, then screw the cap down onto the cable. Narva's wiring guide shows the standard colours. A smear of dielectric grease on the terminals before the plug goes in helps keep moisture out.

Warranty

This comes with the manufacturer's warranty through the Australian distributor. See the manufacturer's terms for details, plus our guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law.

FAQ

Is this the car side or the trailer side?

The car side. The matching trailer plug is the 82141BL.

Do I need tools?

A screwdriver for the terminals. The housing itself closes on its threaded cap.

Will it handle a caravan?

Each pole is rated at 15A at 12V. Check the current draw of the circuits you run through it.

How do I fit the socket?

Bolt it to the tow bar bracket, feed the cable through the cap, then land each wire on its pin as printed inside and screw the cap down.

Is it one socket?

Yes. You get it in a blister pack as one 7 pin flat socket. The trailer plug is the separate 82141BL.
