Camco Mfg 55272 30A Generator Adapter Nema L5-30 to TT-30

Product Description

The CAMCO MFG 55272 is a 30-amp generator adapter designed to connect a generator equipped with a NEMA L5-30 locking receptacle to an RV that uses a standard TT-30 cord set. The adapter measures 12 inches in length and is built with 10/3 gauge wire, sized to handle 30-amp loads safely. The 90-degree head reduces strain at the connection point, and the PowerGrip handle provides a secure, non-slip grip during plug insertion and removal. This is a heavy-duty adapter intended for field use by electricians, generator service techs, and RV service professionals who need a reliable transition between locking and standard RV-style connectors.

This adapter is suited for temporary power applications where a portable generator with a NEMA L5-30 locking outlet must feed an RV or similar load that accepts a TT-30 standard female inlet. The 3-prong configuration covers ungrounded setups common in older RV applications. Typical install scenarios include campground hookups, mobile service, and job-site power delivery where generator and RV receptacle types do not match natively. The 12-inch cable length keeps the connection compact and manageable at the generator outlet.
