Anyone have a spare plug or a link where I can obtain one please ?
These are the small 4 pin chrome screw on plugs.

If you want it quick from the UK or do an ebay search for GX16 connector for the chinese stuff.

John did you manage to find the plug yet?

My spindle came a couple of days ago and the plug connector has H17-4t inscribed on it. Mine isn't the screw on type, more like a bayonet type where it needs a quarter turn. It has 2.5mm pins, so rated at 20A 500v

Searching h17 series connector brings up alibaba links only. You could try contacting them, for 1 or buy a few and put them on ebay.

Mine is the screw on type so the Maplins one will work fine.
I was in there on Friday night but didn't get one as i could do with some 4 pin and some 6 pin plugs and sockets for a project.
I can get 10 pairs from China for £10 post paid for the 4 pin and £13 for the 6 pin. and I'm not waiting

Can get 50 from China for £30ish posted if you look around...

Those H17 connectors look good for stepper motors as they accept a good wire size, unlike the GX16 which is a bit smaller than I'd like for CY-4core 1.5mm^2 cable.

True, however I only want logic signals.

John if you're looking for the gx16 type connector, I use a site called dealextreme in china for all sorts. Heres a link for all gx16 connectors they do from 2 to 9 pins.
