There are also Power Pole's rated for 45 amps, and larger Power Poles connectors for 50, 175, and 350 amps. We use some for our robot batteries. (the 50 amp kind, actually) We have also used simple quick-connects in many places and screw-terminal blocks when a large number of connections are necessary, without any problems. There are power poles to handle more then 30 amps.
