How to Install A Plug For Shore Power on Your Trailer

Installing an outlet on the outside of your trailer allows you to work inside with the doors shut. This can be especially important during cold weather uses while ice fishing.

🤔😂.. 🤷‍♂️ but I don’t recall motels having outdoor outlets for guest? Do they? Wouldn’t their parking lots be full with rv’s & campers 😳🤷‍♂️ … but if they do 👍 can’t wait for part two!!! Installation of solar panels on the roof so all your stuff will be charging & charged when you get to your destination 😁😜 👍✌🏻 … merry Christmas 🎄🎁 keep the vids coming

Is there a way to do this to have multiple outlets in the trailer?

[@andymartinez101]

This is the best explained but also simple video!! Love it!! Keeping it simple and showing everything needed. I just ordered the Noco plug for my trailers going to cut the inside female end off and make one of these junction but with a switch

[@jimlem2075]

Merry Christmas Ross. That plug would be great for connecting shore power to a boats battery maintainers , or for downrigger plug in power.

[@bradleybergstrom8036]

What size hole saw did you use?

[@traedrose7963]

Just curious. Why didn't you install a breaker? I know that the power cord you are plugging from is connected to a breaker, but any downsides to not having a breaker on the trailer side? Thank you for the video and your time.

[@cbow7961]

Would you please provide the link to the Leviton you purchased? I haven't found one with the plug-in already in it like you used. Thank you!

[@ericmckinley7015]

Glad you flipped it! Lol

[@lovesdoggies1481]

Link to parts im women new to it

[@miracletimberlake9202]

Would someone tell me exactly the name of everything, and where to get. I would like to do it myself

[@patrickgaghen5273]

Great Video as Always

[@miracletimberlake9202]

thank you

[@billkay4571]

Do you have the levitron part numbers for what you used on this project? What gauge wire did you use?

[@dkollander]

Wrap some electrical tape around the entire outlet, cover all the screws that you could attach wires to....a couple passes with the tape. Because short circuits suck!
