Marinco 111A Pigtail Adapter, 30A 125V Male Plug to 50A 125V Female Connector
The Marinco 111A is a shore power pigtail adapter that lets you connect a 30 amp 125 volt dockside power source to a boat equipped with a 50 amp 125 volt shore power inlet. The dockside end is a 30 Amp 125V locking male plug, and the boatside end is a 50 Amp 125V locking female connector fitted with a sealing collar system for use in wet locations. This lets boaters with a 50 amp shore power inlet draw power from a standard 30 amp dock pedestal without needing to rewire the boat's shore power system.
The adapter is fully molded for durability and includes protective covers to shield the connections from moisture and spray. A built-in LED power indicator lets you confirm at a glance that the connection is live, and the contoured grip with a thumbprint ground blade locator makes it easy to align and handle the plug correctly, even in low light. The cord measures 25 feet, giving enough reach for most dock configurations, and the unit is rated for 7500 watts.
