  • What Inlet and Plug do I Need to Install an Air Conditioner on My Enclosed Trailer?
  • As far as the inlet plug you need to run your air conditioner unit, you will first need to install the Epicord 30 Amp Twist Lock Power Inlet - Black # 277-000138. Once the inlet is installed, you will be able to use a 30-amp plug like the Mighty Cord RV Power Cord - 30 Amps - 25' Long # A10-3025ED. You will then be able to connect those components to a 30-amp shore power source. I went ahead and attached a video of the installation of the inlet if you need help.

  • What Parts Are Needed To Install a Shore Power Circuit On a Trailer
  • I do have some of the components that you will need to set your trailer up for a shore power circuit but if install cost is all you are looking for then you would be best off talking with a qualified service center as this is not something we partake in. The primary factor will be the shop's labor rate and that can very drastically so it would be best if you call around for this beforehand. In order to install a shore power circuit you are going to need a transfer switch, power inlet,...

  • How To Wire An Enclosed Trailer To Run Off Shore Power And Battery Power
  • The first thing you'll need is a power inlet to receive power from the shore power pedestal.

  • Replacement 30 Amp Power Inlet for Furrion on Camper
  • Hey Mike we have the Hughes part # HU87VR which would work great as a direct replacement for your Furrion power inlet. This inlet is really cool because it uses LEDs on the front of it to let you know that everything is working fine. If any of the LED lights are red and the halo light is red or not illuminating, theres a wiring problem at the power source. Consult the manual to determine if theres a missing ground, missing neutral, missing line, or reverse polarity. What camper do you have?

  • How to Power a Winch on a Cargo Trailer
  • Hey Tim, that's a nice trailer! Another way to power the winch on your 2017 Cargo Mate would be to have a large deep cell battery installed on the trailer that will power the winch and then use the 12 volt accessory circuit from the 7-way on your truck to put a maintenance charge on the battery. You could then run lights off of the same battery. Or and this is my recommendation, if you have a winch with up to a 16.5k capacity you could get the Trailer and Vehicle Electric Winch Wiring...
