The Bates product is less than desirable. See http://www.controlbooth.com/forums/lighting/5931-trixfer.html and http://www.controlbooth.com/forums/lighting/10519-bates-trixfers.html. However, the TMB product might be viable. From ProPin™.pdf:
Now, has anyone actually seen or used either of these connectors with special holes by Bates or ProPin?
Come to think of it, I never received a satisfactory answer to my question as to whether L6-20 V-style two-fers using SJO cable were acceptable:... but quite possibly, other plugs of 2P&G, Edison and locking types might well not be appropriate for twofer use. Thus I suspect that the UL issue might be with the type of strain relief to the cable, not the terminal design per say.
SteveB , are you just trying to be correct, or do you have an unnatural urge to force everyone to use Y-style two-fers, which no one prefers over V-style?
