AMP or Molex, but I suspect it's one or the other.
It has 5 pins in a straight line. The pins look to be the normal
0.093" ones. The face of the socket housing looks a bit like this:

That is, 5 pins in a line, with one end of the housing pointed for
polarisation.
I'm pretty sure this isn't AMP, but it looks like a Molex 0.093" Power
Connector. A lot of these are made in panel-mount as well as
free-hanging styles, but the five-way is only made as free-hanging
according to my old Molex catalogue. However, it says there's a mating
unshrouded vertical header in their 1840 series, and "vertical headers
may be assembled using PC tail terminals in standard housing". The
receptacle part is 03-09-1052, it's 27.2mm long x 6.2mm wide; the plug
part is 03-09-2052, 30.0mm long x 8.6mm wide. Each pin is rated 9A at
250V in these housings.
