Marinco 6373EL-B 50 Amp 125/250V Stainless Steel Shore Power Inlet with Easy Lock

The Marinco 6373EL-B is a 50 amp, 125/250 volt stainless steel shore power inlet built for boats that need a secure, watertight connection point for dockside electrical hookup. The inlet uses Marinco's Easy Lock system: a cordset fitted with an Easy Lock locking ring connects to the inlet and needs less than a quarter turn to seat. Tabs on the locking ring engage the inlet to create a positive, watertight connection while eliminating the risk of cross-threading a standard twist-lock plug. The locking ring has lock locators positioned 180 degrees apart to improve finger grip during hookup, and because the inlet retains a threaded boss, it will also accept conventional threaded cordsets, not just Easy Lock cordsets.

Blades are nickel-plated brass for corrosion resistance in a marine environment, and the interior hardware is marine-grade stainless steel. The cover is designed to stay hinged open once lifted, so the boater can plug in the shore power cord without holding the cover out of the way, and a soft touch releases it for closing. The exterior finish is stainless steel.
