    That looks at first glance like arcing - is the XT60 a snug fit? The plus in the male side can be widened with a precision screwdriver (with power off of course!) which would make the pin connection tighter. I've had to do that a few times on the connectors in Battleaxe which are XT60, it's a very similar setup but doesn't draw excessive current. What fuse rating are you using?

    EDIT: I would probably replace that connector pair altogether!

    Damn was gonna do it energized while in a earthed steel container fuil of salt water



    100a fuse, it was a snug fit looks like the metal inside the connecter (brass?) melted down into the connector resulting a lose connection.
