SmartPlug vs. Twist Lock


RV and boat owners have long relied on Twist Lock style connections for powering their rides. For years, it has been the best option for connecting to shore power. It's been reliable, but most know it's not without disadvantages:


Twist-Type Design Problems

  • Curved pins make minimal surface contact, increasing the amount of heat generated
  • Locking ring can be prone to breaking, cross threading, and stripping out
  • Faulty locking ring puts strain on the connection
  • Wear and debris can loosen the fit, further decreasing surface contact
  • Circular plug shape isn't user friendly and takes some awareness of the orientation of the pins to insert correctly

SmartPlug's connector addresses each of these concerns and does all of the heavy lifting.


Locking arms grab the inlet, a clamp inside the plug body holds the cord, the inlet cap snaps to the top while in use, and the integrated seals weatherproof the connection. This helps prevent the wiggly, dirty connections that increase electrical resistance, which creates potentially dangerous heat.


Since it uses a square plug face, SmartPlug is able to use flat pins which create far more surface contact, further reducing the risk of high heat and electrical arcing. The square shape and flat pins also make it easy to plug in - no more twisting or guessing if the pins are lined up correctly.

  • Is There an Internal Backing Plate on the SmartPlug RV Power Inlet and Connector SM77FR?
    Hey Kerry! The SmartPlug RV Power Inlet and Connector item # SM77FR only has the one mounting plate that you can see in the attached picture below. The mounting screws install underneath the front cover and it is rated for marine use not just RV. I do not have any information on the Eaton Dockside, as we do not carry it. I have attached a diagram below so you can compare the dimensions of item # SM77FR to confirm compatibility. Additionally, there are three colors available including...

  • Installing the Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger # PD4060K
    Yes, for your stated objective you are on the correct track. The Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger, # PD4060K will provide a full 60 Amps of DC charge to your battery bank. This is to be used with a 30 amp AC inlet such as the Furrion Marine Power Inlet, # F30ITSBS, that you referenced. Or my preferred option, the SmartPlug RV Power Inlet and Connector - 30 Amp, # SM27FR in black. ( # SM77FR - white, # SM87FR - Gray, # SM67FR - SS .) The # F30ITSBS...

  • Upgrade/Replacement 30 Amp RV Power Inlet and Connector to the SmartPlug
    The SmartPlug Upgrade RV Power Inlet and Connector, 30 Amp, # SM77FR is a great option. I prefer the stainless steel, # SM67FR option myself for aesthetics but each is well made and the same unit outside of materials constructed with. You use the same cord that you currently have, cut off the plug and install the new one that comes with the kit. It has full detailed instructions on how to do so. Please note the linked product review video. The color options are: # SM27FR - black ...

  • Mounting Dimensions of SmartPlug Inlet SM27FR
    Hi Monty, The mounting holes for the round cable hatch # A10-2130VP will not be covered by the SmartPlug RV Power Inlet and Connector - 30 Amp # SM27FR. I've added a photo below of the mounting dimensions of the # SM27FR and as you can see they are 2.44" apart on center, while the hatch is 3-1/2" round in diameter.

  • Recommendations For AC/DC Panel and Converter Along with Wiring, for a Scamp
    First off, congrats on the Scamp, those are great little fiberglass units that last for years. Generally speaking we suggest that electrical wiring, for safety purposes, be done by licensed electricians or certified RV Techs. But as for the items and why, let me begin with the AC/DC distribution panel. I recommend the Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger, # PD4045KA at 45 Amps. There is also a 60 Amp version, # PD4060K, but the 45 amp version is well...

  • Can A SmartPlug Power Inlet Be Installed In A nuCamp T@b Teardrop Trailer
    With the size of your trailer and you stating you only have three wires running to the power inlet you most likely have 30 amp service and would definitely be able to swap out the inlet with the SmartPlug RV Power Inlet and Connector # SM27FR. I've installed a few of these and have run into some issues with the cutout holes in the past and had to get a bit creative. Some times you just have to trim a bit more out for it to fit and some times the previous inlet was a bit wider and you'll...

  • What Material is the 30 AMP SmartPlug RV and Marine Power Inlet and Connector Made From
    The 30 amp SmartPlug RV and Marine Power Inlet and Connector, # SM67FR that you linked to is made from highly polished Marine-Grade 316 Stainless Steel. The electrical pins are nickel-plated brass for maximum conductivity with the internal electrics being fully encased in thermal epoxy. This makes them 100% weatherproof. There is also a durable plastic option in three colors, # SM77FR for white, # SM27FR for black and # SM87FR for gray. All are Made in the USA. Please note the linked...

  • Can Smart Plug RV SM27FR be Used with 50 Amp Wiring
    If the 50 amp cable you have now has 3 wires and not 4 (check the amount of recipticles/prongs on the front of it) then yes you can use the SmartPlug RV # SM27FR with it.
