With the SmartPlug lineup of marine products, we\u2019ve got you covered. Our revolutionary products feature the latest technology and highest quality materials that you\u2019ll find easy to use and install.<\/p><p>Here\u2019s what you need to keep you safe on every boating excursion you\u2019ll take this season and beyond:<\/p><p><strong>Inlets:<\/strong> Our inlets provide 20X\u2019s more electrical contact area eliminating the overheating conditions seen with twist-type connectors. The solid sleeve connection and weatherproof seal makes it a preferred option. The mounting flange holes match existing inlets so it can be easily installed to replace the old twist-type inlet products in minutes. Our inlets are designed with high performance\/flame resistant material and are offered in a variety of colors to match your boat.<\/p><p><strong>Connectors:<\/strong> Our retro-fit connector offers superior performance and ease of use, designed to use with your current cord set. You simply cut off the cord plug on your RV\/Boat cord. The connector has spring loaded side levers that automatically lock into the slots on the inlet housing. The connector has mechanical cord restraint, color-coded wire guides, and a water-resistant cord seal.<\/p><p><strong>Cordsets:<\/strong> Our Marine cordset comes with a cool blue LED Power indicator light that glows when power is on. The cord set is available in a 25\u2032 &amp; 50\u2019 lengths with the SmartPlug connector and features a weatherproof seal for the boat side and the industry standard three-pin twist-type connector for the marina power pedestal. Our cords have tinned wire and have been designed to minimize corrosion.<\/p><p><strong>ELCI:<\/strong> The LineGard\u2122 PGFM product family provides ELCI (equipment leakage circuit interrupter) ground fault sensing and is designed and manufactured by North Shore Safety, a leader in innovative safety products. The PGFM series operates in tandem with an Airpax\u2122 LEL series, UL 489 listed circuit breaker, with shunt trip and auxiliary switch<\/p><p>The combined assembly of the PGFM and Airpax\u2122 breaker meets the requirements of ABYC E-11 for ground fault protection and main shore power circuit protection. The PGFM constantly monitors the current balance of the conductors (wires\/cables) supplying power to the load. When a ground fault of 27mA nominal (30mA max) occurs, the PGFM uses the LEL\u2019s shunt trip coil to signal the breaker trip.<\/p><p><strong>Data Ports:<\/strong> Our Data Ports are the perfect complement to our stainless shore power inlets, offering the same look and quality marine grade stainless steel components. Our data ports feature a weatherproof seal, are easy to use and install, and include a silicone mounting gasket.<\/p><p><strong><em>Before you head out this season, make safety a priority.
