Expert Answers about Chevrolet RV Plug Adapters


  • Adapter Needed to Connect Camco Power Grip Power Cord Extension to RV Plug
  • The Camco Power Grip RV Temporary Power Cord Extension # CAM55197 referenced in your question will connect to to a standard power source. It sounds like you have a marine-style plug on your RV that you can connect to using a power adapter like the Camco # CAM55522. You will plug the female end of this adapter to your RV plug, and then the Camco Extension mentioned above will connect to the male end. I have attached a video that demonstrates how these products will work together on your RV.

  • Is the Camco Power Grip Generator Adapter # CAM55422 CSA Certified
  • Yes, the Camco Power Grip Generator Adapter for RV Power Cord # CAM55422 is indeed CSA certified for use. This 125-Volt adapter cord will convert your RV's 50-amp power plug so that it will work with a 30-amp twist-lock outlet on a generator. The twist-lock design on the male plug will help keep the connector plugged in while the generator vibrates. I have attached a short video demonstration on this product that you can also check out.

  • Different Adapters To Connect 50 Amp RV Plug Into a 30 Amp Generator Connection
  • Cord color really has no particular indication for a specific use. Most of the time the color is something specific to that manufacturer. Camco in particular uses mostly yellow on their adapters like Power Grip RV Power Cord Adapter # CAM55185. Mighty Grip will offer some Red # A10-3050FHVP and Black # A10-3050FBK adapters. All these do the same as the Camco listed above just a different color for that brand. Since you mentioned connecting to a generator I also recommend verifying the...

  • Adapting a 7 Round Pin on a Trailer to a 7 Way RV Plug
  • Though replacing the plug on your trailer with something like the Hopkins 7-Way RV Style Connector with Molded Cable - Trailer End - 8' Long - RV Standard # H20046 will be my recommendation, if you wanted to keep your current 7 Pin on the trailer, the following can be used to adapt it. The Hopkins # H20046 will still be used, but it would be wired into the Pollak Bracket for Single-Pole Trailer Wiring Socket # PK11720. The 7-Pole Rubber Socket Boot # PK11761 would then keep the connections...

  • Is There a 4-Way Vehicle to 7-Way Trailer Connector Adapter
  • What you are describing is your vehicle has a 4-way and your trailer has a 7-way so you'll simply need the following adapter: - Adapter 4 Way to 7-Blade RV Connector # C96KR You'll just plug your Honda's 4-way into the # C96KR and then plug the 7-way into it and you'll be set. Since you won't be using the extra functions of the 7-way you can simply tie off the wires coming off the adapter.

  • Which Prongs On The Mighty Cord RV Power Cord Adapter Are Hot And Neutral
  • I've drawn up a little diagram below showing where each wire goes on the Mighty Cord RV Power Cord Adapter # A10-1550D90VP. Since this is a 50 amp to 15 amp adapter there's only one power wire running over the 50 amp end. Which one has that wire out of the two I wouldn't be able to tell you without taking the connector apart to see.

  • Connecting Magnetic Tow Bar Lights With 4-Way to Motorhome With 7-Way
  • We have some options for you to connect magnetic tow bar lights to a motorhome connector (which should be a standard RV 7-way), though there isn't an adapter to go from the 4-round on the Heavy Duty Magnetic Tow Light Set # 337TL257M. While you could do some cutting and splicing to get it to work, the much easier option is to go with a magnetic light set with a 4-flat, the Roadmaster Standard Magnetic Tow Lights # RM-2120. There is an adapter that will go from a 4-flat to a 7-way, so...

  • Replacing SmartPlug With Standard 50 Amp Inlet
  • There is not an adapter to go from the SmartPlug to a twist-lock power cord, so what you'd have to do is replace the SmartPlug inlet with a standard 50 amp inlet, the Mighty Cord Replacement RV Power Inlet - Twist Lock - 50 Amp - White # A10-50INVP or Black # A10-50INBKVP. That would allow you to use a standard 50 amp power cord like the Mighty Cord RV Power Cord - 50 Amps - 25' Long # A10-5025ED90.

  • Is There A CAT6 Cable With A 90 Degree Bend Compatible With The SmartPlug RV Internet Inlet
  • While we don't currently carry any CAT6 cables there are some out on the market that are rated for outdoor use due to their enhanced casing. From the port in the SmartPlug RV Internet Inlet # SM38FR to the outer edge of the orange inlet shielding is 9/16" (pictured below). I personally don't know of a specific cable that would come with an elbow connector that would match up to the 9/16" depth, but that's what you would need to look for. You could try reaching out to SmartPlug directly...

  • How Will A Power Cord Sit When Connected To The Mighty Cord RV Power Cord Adapter # A10-3050DAVP
  • The twist-lock portion of the Mighty Cord RV Power Cord Adapter Plug # A10-3050DAVP would connect directly to the 50 amp twist-lock receptacle on the trailer and have the 30 amp male blades sticking directly outwards. This would mean that if you connected a straight 30 amp cable to this end it will stick out and then gradually bend down. 30 amp power cords tend to be a bit heavy so you could end up with a kink in the line over time so in this situation I would recommend a 30 amp female...

  • Will Adapting From 50 Amp To 30 Amp Service Leave Enough Power To Charge The Trailer Battery
  • Stepping down from 50 amp to 30 amp should leave your more than enough to run the lights in your trailer and the converter to keep the battery charged.
