You can use the same connector for the same 30 amp twist lock, 3 conductor, in your camper.
For the last two years, I've used one for fishing and it's still perfect. I've used it from May through September each year.
Thank you but no thanks
An indicator. A copper alloy. That should be helpful, thanks!
Selected User Reviews For Marinco Cord Set
In the beginning, I bought a RV one, but then realized a marine one has the same end as an RV to plug into the boat, but it has a different plug to plug into the shore power box. I really enjoyed this one. If I had bought a black one, I might have saved a few dollars, but yellow will be easier to see and will ensure I don't trip over it. The revised version. I had a plug melt down after 4 months. I have a properly working 30 amp CB on my boat, and I have the same on my Clean and efficient connections were found at all times. This is how I found it when I arrived. For temp power to come back on, I had to cut the end off and connect it again. Marinco needs to step up and replace this cord, which is not cheap! So I have lowered the rating to 1 star. A Smartplug connector was chosen after a lot of research. This is an expensive design, but one that is far superior. The company sells them on Amazon.
Considering the boatside female) LED is on the inside, it's a little difficult to see if there's Dock side lights are subject to orientation issues (not all NMEA plugs are installed at such a position that the LED faces out). In the evening, it does not pose a problem. Several docks have NMEA connector protectors that lower over the plugs. The ends of these protectors were not compatible with the fasteners used to secure the plugs at the dock or on the boat, so eventually the plug will come loose. My opinion is that this is a huge design flaw.
There is no loss of power for the generator. I purchased the 50 foot hose. Using a 3-600 Generac generator and 30 amp Cordco cord to run two refrigerators, two freezers, and a 20 amp extension cord from a surge protector, I also powered a cable box, router, modem, flat screen television, and an oscillating fan. We ran it all for approximately 30 seconds. I was able to keep the power on for 2 hours without any loss. By the way, neither cord got hot or even warm. Because it's 10 gauge, it's a heavy duty cord, and it locks into the generator's outlet so it doesn't shake loose in the wind. It is one of the most important features. You will be glad you spent 85 dollars on it. If you are in need of a good lawyer, I have paid 78 for my services. I recommend this cord because it is designed and heavy duty. Instead of buying something cheap that could cause the cord to get hot, and possibly short out expensive equipment or appliances. Quality items will last longer and function properly if you spend your money on them.
The LED light that indicates an effective connection at both ends is very attractive, but after only three months, the plastic at both ends is fading to a very pale yellow. In keeping with the cost, you would expect a more durable plastic pigment to be used. In order to prevent further damage from the sun, I coated both the cord itself as well as the plastic terminals with a ceramic coating. Manufacturer common in the industry! By saving money by buying cheap pigments, how much do you actually save? Hire a seasoned MBA to replace the rookie who suggested this measure to cut costs!.
The product is great, and you save money by buying here rather than elsewhere. This marine store is very popular! I'm not sure why they don't come with a locking ring on both ends, but if you are using a 50/30 amp splitter make sure that you have one on both ends. It is important not to let moisture in. In case you notice a burn spot on either end of the neutral leg, you could have a galvanic isolation problem. It would be a good idea to have a boat mechanic check out the While I have never had any luck replacing the ends, I know that it can be done. I'm not good with electrical things. Make sure that you rinse and let the end dry before reconnecting if you drop an end in salt water.
) The marina suggested we buy a marine grade cord. We were able to fix the problem with this Marinco cord. On another boat many years ago, I took one of these same trips. It has the same great quality, but now comes with a little red led in the boat side connector that will show you whether it is plugged in or not. That's so sweet!.
Great connectors. I love them. We no longer have to try to screw in the locking ring. There is a good deal of pliability and flexibility in the cable.
A chord that has been in use for 3 months in my electric boat without a problem. I thought the name didn't match the quality of the chord. For me, the only thing I dislike is how shenanigans feel when the plug is twisted and locked, female to male, it feels tacky. No matter how loose or snug it is, it feels comfortable. It holds it in place even though the lock collar is in place. I just feel that it could The result is 4 out of 5.
