Blue Sea Systems 1010 12 Volt Plug with Twist-Lock and Built-In 10 Amp Fuse
The Blue Sea Systems 1010 is a 12 Volt Plug built for marine electrical accessories that need a secure, weather-resistant power connection. Corrosion resistant materials maintain solid contact and keep voltage drop low, which matters in a boat's damp, salt-exposed environment. A moisture-proof sealing ring runs around the shaft to keep out spray and helps the plug seat firmly in its outlet, so the connection stays tight even when underway. The twist-lock system locks the plug securely into its socket, preventing accidental disconnects from vibration or a stray tug on the cord. An "ON" indicating LED lets you confirm at a glance that the circuit is live, which is useful when the plug is mounted somewhere you cannot easily probe with a meter. A built-in 10 Amp fuse is integrated into the plug itself, giving the connected accessory its own point of overcurrent protection without requiring a separate inline fuse holder. The plug is a single-pole, single-wire design finished in a synthetic housing and meets UL specification. It is intended for use with Blue Sea Systems 12 volt sockets and compatible outlets on boats, RVs, and other 12 volt DC systems where a reliable, lockable accessory plug is needed.
