Tight campground pedestal? Cord pulling straight out at an awkward angle? The Camco 55562 Power Grip adapter puts a 90-degree bend between your 50 amp shore power cord and the pedestal outlet, routing the cord downward and relieving tension at the plug face. The molded Power Grip handles make it easier to lock and unlock under heavy-gauge cord resistance.
The SS2-50 locking outlet is the standard 50 amp connector found at most RV parks, but those outlets are frequently mounted close to enclosure edges, landscape timbers, or adjacent equipment. A straight cord exit yanks sideways on the outlet face and can stress both the plug and the outlet body over time. The Camco 55562 changes that exit angle to 90 degrees, so your shore power cord drops away cleanly toward the ground instead of jutting straight out.
The 18-inch dogbone cord between the male plug and the female connector adds enough separation that you can position the female end at a convenient angle before the main cord begins its run to the RV. Power Grip oversized handles are molded into the plug body, giving you real leverage when engaging or releasing the locking collar -- useful when hands are cold or gloves are on.
Cord routes downward from the pedestal outlet instead of straight out, reducing mechanical stress on the outlet face and your shore power cord.
Oversized molded handles on the plug body provide better leverage for engaging and releasing the locking collar, even with gloved hands.
Provides enough separation between male and female ends to position the connector at the right angle before the main cord begins its run.
Mates with the standard 50 amp locking outlet (NEMA SS2-50) found at the vast majority of campground pedestals across North America.
