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:
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.

Easily replace your inlet and rewire your power cord for a SmartPlug connection that is both safer and easier to use. This package contains everything you need to upgrade your ride for a new generation of shore power connection.This product completely fixed all our RV's electrical issue caused by a loose connection from the traditional power cord.
This plug was very easy to install. It is so much better than the twist lock/screw up collar.
Worked Out perfect.
It's installed but still building trailer so have not gotten to use it yet. Will Update when i do!
Excellent product. Install was not difficult. .definitely an upgrade from the original 50 amp plug.
Excellent part, excellent customer service and support. etrailer is my go to for parts.
Works well and provides peace of mind knowing that a good electrical connection has been established.
We've owned 4 trailers and the last 3 have all been retrofitted with the smart plug. I'm sold on this product.
Part was as described. Came in timely manner worked perfect
I found the installation of the inlet easy and the modification of the connector very easy. The instructions were very easy to follow and very comprehensive.
The only issue was the rear cover (pictured) for the inlet could not fit at the front location of may 2019 Airstream Flying Cloud 27 ft. FB. I also installed the cable port.
The SmartPlug installed great and after a year of heavy use continues to perform perfectly! Electrical hookups are now quick and positive with solid connections!
Easy to install and so much better of a system to hook up power, plug and go. Highly recommend the Smart Plug for safety and ease of use, plus looks good too.
This Smart plug inlet plug is true to size. I've used the Smart Plug system on other RVs and am familiar with the better contact area. I was delighted to see that this plug fit inside the connection center of my campervan, and still be able to close cover with no bulging.
Replaced the old plug and twist version that came with RV because I kept getting grounding errors from the Surge Guard. Since replacing have had positive connections. Like the locking tabs and not having the cross thread issues with the previous locking ring.
By the way, make sure you have a surge protection device that doesn't send power unless your connection is correct. Would not have known I had no ground otherwise.
The old style RV plugs are prone to have connection problems which causes melting of the unit. That happened to me in below freezing weather and we lost power to our trailer. This new plug will not have that problem. It fits together solidly and I don't worry about any loose connection. I have seen that the SmartPlug is now standard equipment on Airstream trailers. That's quite an endorsement. You Cann't go wrong with the SmartPlug system.
