RV, Marine and Shore Power

A shore connection moves with the vessel. If the plug is not locked and the jacket is not rated for wet service, the connection is the weak point.

Recreational vehicles and boats draw their supply from a pedestal that may be metres away and exposed to weather the whole time. The cord has to carry 30 A or 50 A continuously, survive salt and sunlight, and stay engaged while the vehicle or vessel moves.

We build NEMA 14-50P, 6-50P and 10-50P cord sets, three conductor locking extension shore power cable sets and heavy RV cords on 10, 8 and 6 AWG jacketed cable.

What We Do About It

  • Locking connections that stay engaged under movement
  • Heavy conductors sized for continuous 30 A and 50 A service
  • W rated jackets for dockside and outdoor use
  • Built lengths so no cable is left coiled on the dock

Frequently Asked Questions

Which plug does a 50 A RV use?

The NEMA 14-50P is the common 50 A recreational vehicle connection. The 6-50P and 10-50P patterns are used in other configurations.

Why does the connector need to lock?

Because the vessel or vehicle moves. A straight-blade plug can work loose.

What gauge is used on a 50 A cord?

6 AWG and 8 AWG conductors are the usual choices, confirmed against the run length.
