Valterra 30 Amp Male X 15 Amp Female RV Dogbone Adapter Cord

The Valterra A10-3015 RV dogbone adapter cord lets you connect a 30 amp RV outlet to a standard 15 amp receptacle. A 30 amp TT-30 male plug on one end and a 15 amp 5-15R female connector on the other, connected by a short section of heavy duty cable, make it a simple way to power small tools or extension cords from a 30 amp pedestal.

The dogbone style design gives some flexibility and reduces strain on the pedestal outlet compared to rigid adapters.

FAQ

Q: Can I plug my whole RV into this adapter?
A: No. It is intended for 15 amp devices and extension cords, not for back feeding an RV panel.

Q: Does this increase power available to a 15 amp device?
A: No. The device and 15 amp receptacle still limit the load to 15 amps.
