Description

The SmartPlug 30A boat inlet replaces the legacy twist-type shore power fitting that is the leading cause of shore power overheating and marina fires. Instead of a handful of curved pins that carry both the current and the weight of the cord, the SmartPlug uses a push-in sleeve design so the plug body absorbs the load and movement, keeping the electrical contacts firm, cool and corrosion-free.

This version is finished with a marine-grade 316 stainless steel cover for exposed helm, cockpit and topside locations. It mounts straight over the existing twist-type hole pattern, so a typical retrofit takes around 30 minutes. Certified ETL and built to ABYC E-11, it accepts any SmartPlug 30A connector or cordset and closes to a weatherproof seal when not in use.

What makes SmartPlug safer than a twist-type shore power connector?
Most shore power failures and fires are caused by overheating, not electrical shorting. A twist-type plug relies on a few curved pins that also carry the weight of the cord, so they work loose, arc and overheat. SmartPlug uses a push-in sleeve so the plug body takes the cord's load, provides over 27 times the pin contact area, and seals the connection behind three weatherproof gaskets.
Will it fit my existing twist-type inlet holes?
Yes. The SmartPlug inlet flange matches the standard twist-type mounting hole pattern, so most retrofits are finished in about 30 minutes without drilling new holes.
What do I need to plug into it?
Connect a SmartPlug 30A connector or a SmartPlug 30A cordset. The dock end of the cordset stays a standard twist-type plug that fits marina pedestals.
