[AMPS] Need HV connectors

What kind of socket/plug connectors are available for HV these days? I 
remember years ago guys just used common stuff like the "UHF" coax series, 
and also Millen made a commercial one.

I need to run a 3.5KV lead between my AL-1200 and this amp I am checking 
out. I would just use some coax and "UHF" connectors, but I am bothered by 
having a connector loaded with HV that looks like an innocent antenna 
connection. The HV lead might become permanent.

If the connector does not provide for the ground side like the coax 
connector would, I need to address the safety aspect of that as well. As I 
recall, the old Millen one did not insure a ground by itself.
