Stuck at a campsite with only a 15-amp outlet and a 30-amp RV? The Camco Power Grip Dogbone Adapter bridges that gap safely and conveniently. The 12-inch flexible cord gives just enough slack to reduce plug stress, while the oversized yellow Power Grip handles make connecting and disconnecting easy -- even in the dark or when your hands are full.
Not every campground pedestal has a 30-amp outlet available. Whether you are at a state park, a friend's house, or an overflow site with only standard household power, this adapter lets you plug your 30-amp RV power cord into a 15-amp NEMA 5-15P receptacle without a separate extension cord or additional adapters.
The 180-degree bend between the male and female ends routes the cord naturally and eliminates the leverage stress that causes straight adapters to loosen or crack over time. Both ends are molded in heavy-duty polyvinyl plastic rated for repeated outdoor use.
Oversized yellow molded handles on both ends give you a firm grip for plugging and unplugging -- no pinched fingers or slipping.
The cord exits at 180 degrees between male and female ends, reducing mechanical stress at the plug and extending adapter life.
Handles up to 1875 watts at 125 volts -- enough to run essential RV systems while keeping within the 15-amp circuit limit.
Certified for use in both the United States and Canada, making it a reliable adapter for cross-border camping trips.
This dogbone adapter allows your 30-amp RV to connect to a 15-amp power source. It does not increase the available amperage. Your RV will still be limited to 15 amps (1875 watts) of total draw from the campsite. Running high-draw appliances simultaneously -- air conditioner, microwave, and electric water heater at once -- will trip the campsite breaker.
The male end uses a standard NEMA 5-15P straight-blade plug -- the same two-blade-plus-ground configuration found on virtually every household outlet in North America. The female end accepts the TT-30R (NEMA TT-30R) three-prong 30-amp socket that mates with the standard RV shore power cord plug (TT-30P).
The jacket is black PVC and the molded ends are yellow high-visibility polyvinyl -- easy to spot in a gear bin or at night. The adapter weighs approximately 0.95 lbs, light enough to toss in a shore power bag without adding meaningful bulk. Camco backs this adapter with a limited 90-day warranty.
