Camco Mfg 55183 Rv Electric Adapter 30A to 50A 125V

Product Description

The CAMCO MFG 55183 is a dogbone-style RV electric adapter designed to connect a 30-amp male plug to a 50-amp female receptacle. Rated at 125 volts and 3,750 watts, this adapter allows an RV or mobile home with a 30-amp service cord to plug into a 50-amp pedestal outlet at campgrounds, RV parks, or temporary service sites. The Power Grip design provides a secure, non-slip hold during connection and disconnection. At 18 inches in length, it offers enough slack to reduce stress on the outlet and cord. Installation requires no tools and is handled by the RV owner or an electrician verifying service compatibility.

This adapter is used in residential and mobile applications where shore power pedestals provide 50-amp service but the RV or mobile home is wired for 30-amp input. It is suited for campground hookups, RV parks, and temporary power setups at mobile home sites. The package quantity is 3 units, making it practical for resale, fleet service operations, or stocking multiple units across vehicles or job sites.

Compatibility

Designed for use with RVs and mobile homes equipped with a 30-amp service cord requiring connection to a 50-amp shore power outlet.

Installation Notes

This adapter is installed by an RV owner, electrician, or qualified service technician. Before connecting or disconnecting shore power, verify the pedestal breaker is off to avoid arcing at the plug. Do not exceed the 30-amp rating of the RV-side cord, as the adapter does not upgrade the vehicle's internal wiring capacity. Installations at permanent or semi-permanent sites should comply with applicable NEC guidelines for RV park electrical service.
