Trailer connectors in Australia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A number of standards prevail in Australia for trailer connectors, the electrical connectors between vehicles and the trailers they tow that provide a means of control trailer lamps, and in one case, trailer brakes, and also sometimes, manufacturer-specific non-standard functions.

The Australian market generally uses its own version of the European connectors, as well as its uniquely own contacts.[1][2]
The only connector used on the Australian market that is fully ISO standard conformant is the 7-pin ABS / EBS plug.
Since Australia has vehicles from both the North American market and the European market there is a mixture of 12V and 24V.
