  • Prong Style of Camco Power Grip Generator Adapter # CAM55422
  • The male end on the Camco Power Grip Generator Adapter # CAM55422 referenced in your question features 4 prongs for an L-14-50 locking plug receptacle. The female end will connect to your RV's 50-amp power plug. This will allow you to connect your RV's power plug to a 30-amp twist-lock outlet on a generator.

So it converts the RV's 50 amp to work with the genertator's 30 amp. The twist-lock keeps the male end from vibrating out of the generator as it shakes, rattles, and rolls.

  • How to Use etrailer Generator With 30 Amp Plug on RV With 50 Amp Service

I have added links to video reviews of both the generator and the adapter for you to take a look at.

  • Does the Mighty Cord Adapter Split To Both Circuits Equally on 50amp Service or Supply to One?
  • If I'm understanding you correctly, you're trying to determine whether or not the adapter plug splits the loads coming from your generator. I checked with Mighty Cord and they informed me that the Mighty Cord RV Power Cord Adapter Plug - 30 Amp Male to 50 Amp Female supplies power to both lines equally, so your only limitations on this setup are going to be the input of power on each circuit when split.

  • How To Wire An RV Power Cord With Pigtail Wiring
  • Your power cord just like with the Epicord RV Power Cord with Handle # 277-000154 will wire the black and red wires as your positive, white as your neutral, and green as your ground. The green wire should not be sticking out of the sleeve like you have pictured and the plug should have a ground nut on it. Since you have four wires that is a 50amp power cord. If you purchased the black plug separately and it doesn't have four connection points then you most likely purchased a 30amp plug...

  • How To Wire A 50Amp Pigtail Power Cord To Connect To A 30amp Twist Lock Generator Outlet
  • Your power cord, just like with the Mighty Cord # A10-5025END will wire the black and red wires as your positive, white as your neutral, and green as your ground. The green wire should not be sticking out of the sleeve like you have pictured and the plug should have a ground nut on it. Since you have four wires that is a 50amp power cord. Based on the picture you provided you purchased a 30amp twist lock plug which will not work with your cable. I recommend wiring the power cord to a...

  • Can Different Brands of Generators Be Mixed Matched Together to be Used In Parallel
  • No, generators like the A-iPower 2,000-Watt Portable Inverter Generator # 289-SUA2000i are only going to work when hooked up together if they are the same brand. Since your current inverter generator is no longer made, your best option is to upgrade your setup with something like the A-iPower 3,800-Watt Portable Inverter Generators # 289-SUA2000i-2. This setup includes 2 30 amp adapters, 2 DC charging cables, 2 spark plug wrenches, 2 oil funnels and will produce up to 3,800 watts of power...

  • Installation of Tekonsha P3 Brake Controller on a 2011 Dodge Ram Pickup
  • It sounds like your Ram pickup is in the 4th generation which is from 2010 to present so I would think that the 2013 video would be closer related than the 2008, which is part of the 3rd generation. I also linked a snapshot from the directions of the adapter plug # 3021-P which shows where the corresponding plug on your vehicle will be. I wish we had more vehicle installs but are limited by what customers vehicles come into our shop. Where to mount the Tekonsha P3 # 90195 is generally...

  • Choosing A Transfer Switch For A 50 Amp Service Trailer With A 30 Amp Generator
  • With your trailer having 50 amp service you would have to go with a 50 amp transfer switch like the Furrion # F50ATS you were looking at. Unfortunately since the generator is only 30 amps it wouldn't trigger the transfer switch with the lower amperage. You would need to either hardwire in a 50 amp generator to the transfer switch or plug your trailer's shore power cable to the 30 amp generator using an adapter in order to power the trailer.

  • Should Fuse be Installed on Power Wire when Hardwiring Brake Controller on 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  • It all depends on how the brake controller is installed. On vehicles that have a factory tow package that includes a plug or port to plug in a brake controller the circuit does have a fuse. If a brake controller has to be hardwired in then you would run the power wire to the positive battery terminal via a 30 amp circuit breaker # PK54530. But you could use an in line fuse instead if you wanted to. The instructions for the Primus brake controller # TK90160 mention to follow the generic...

  • The Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller part # 90195 with the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers part # 3024-P is indeed a good choice for a 2020 Ram 1500. In regards to installation, the plug is located behind the center dash console near the gear selector where the factory brake controller would have been installed if equipped. The attached photo shows a general location but as noted, there are different dash configurations for the vehicle so exact...

  • Location of the Plug-In Brake Controller Port on a 2000 Ford Expedition
  • If you take a look at the :20 mark in the attached video on a 2000 Ford Expedition, the location of the brake controller port will be shown. It is a grey connector and may be taped to other wires in the harness as well but should still be in this general location. The correct adapter for Tekonsha brake controllers is part # 3035-P. If your vehicle did not come with a factory trailer connector then you will need to use both part # 118344 and part # ETBC7 to complete your wiring. If your...

  • Where Does a Brake Controller Plug Into on a 1999 Ford F-53 Motor Home Chassis
  • On the 1999 Ford F-53 chassis the brake controller plug is located up under the dash behind the instrument cluster. It is not easy to get to. Take a look at the picture I have provided that points it out. It also could be tucked behind or taped to another harness in that general area. If the RV is a 1999 model year then it is possible that the F-53 chassis on it is a 1998. I cannot guarantee that the brake controller plug is present on a 1998 model.

  • Where Does a Brake Controller Plug Into on a 2013 Toyota Tacoma
  • For your 2013 Toyota Tacoma and a Tekonsha brake controller the correct brake controller wiring harness is # 3040-P. In plugs into a plug on the truck located under the dash to the left of the emergency brake pedal. Some times the factory plug can fall behind the driver's side kick panel or be tucked up higher and attached to another wire bundle. I have included a link to a video that shows the general area it is located. It is on a 2012 Tacoma which will be the same as on a 2013. If...

  • Where is the OEM Brake Controller Port on a 2001 Ford F350 SD
  • To access the OEM plug, look near the diagnostic port on the underside of the dash. You should see an open-ended, gray plug hanging down near the diagnostic port. If this plug cannot be found near the diagnostic port, remove the trim panel from below the steering column and look for a gray plug on the right side, near the center console and radio area. With the lower trim panel removed, look for the gray plug beside the sheet metal that runs along the driver's side of the radio area. If...
