How To Extend a 30 Amp RV Shore Power Cord Another 25 Feet

Question

Question:

May I safely use Item # A10-G30330VP to connect two 25foot rv power cords together to generate a longer run of power cable ? Occasionally the electric box is in an inconvenient place, and this would add flexibility to where you park the trailer ?

If you have a shore power cord such as the Mighty Cord 90-Degree Detachable RV Power Cord part # A10-3025ED90 and you need to extend this then you can use the Mighty Cord 25' RV Power Cord Extension part # A10-3025EH which is designed specially for this purpose. I am not sure which exact power cord you have already but the Mighty Cord Generator Adapter part # A10-G30330VP would not work nor is it advised to combine multiple adapters.

Yes the SmartPlug RV Power Cord #SM86FR that you referenced will stay flexible when the weather is cold. This would not get difficult to wrap up if the temperature was to drop.

Hello Paul, thanks for reaching out. The Mighty Cord RV Power Cord #A10-5025EDBK is a 50 amp cord, so as long as your camper is also set up for 50 amp service this would be compatible for you.

I definitely agree with you there Dave, it would be a very nice option to have, but a 90 degree cord is not something made for the 50 amp SmartPlug RV Power Inlet and Connector #SM76FR. I will say the way the plug connects does make it a better, more…
