Marinco Shore Power Cords, Adapters & Inlets
Marinco makes shore power and electrical products for boats: the cordsets, adapters, inlets, plugs and receptacles that bring dock power on board. The range here also includes Guest on-board battery chargers, trolling motor plugs and receptacles, cable TV inlets and remote-controlled spotlights. Listings give the amperage and voltage of each end, so match those to your boat's inlet and the dock pedestal.
Shore power cordsets
Cordsets are listed in 30 amp and 50 amp ratings and in 12, 25 and 50 foot lengths, including the EEL 50 ft 30A cordset in white, the 50 ft PowerCord Plus 30 amp and the 50 ft 50A 125/250V cordset.
Pigtail and Y adapters
Adapters let a cord of one rating connect to an outlet of another. Examples are the 15A female to 30A male pigtail, the EEL pigtail 30A male to 50A 125/250V female and the EEL Y adapter from 50A 125/250V to two 30A.
Power inlets, plugs and receptacles
For the boat side there are inlets such as the 30A stainless steel power inlet and the 50A 125V stainless steel inlet, plus replacement ends like the 50A 125/250V male plug.
Battery chargers and trolling motor connections
Guest chargers are listed by amps and number of battery banks, for example the 15 amp 3-bank charger. For trolling motors there is the 70A trolling motor plug and receptacle.
Do I need a 30 amp or a 50 amp cordset?
Use the rating of the shore power inlet on your boat. A 30A cordset will not fit a 50A inlet, and the reverse is also true.
What is the difference between 50A 125V and 50A 125/250V?
They are different services with different plug shapes and are not interchangeable. The rating is marked on the boat's inlet and on the dock pedestal.
What is a pigtail adapter?
A short adapter cord with a different connector on each end, used when the dock outlet does not match your cordset. An adapter changes the connector, not the amount of power available.
