A burned, cracked, or loose 50 amp plug is a safety hazard and a campground frustration. The Camco Power Grip 55255 gives you a factory-quality NEMA 14-50P male connector with a patented ergonomic handle -- so you can repair your shore cord and get back to using your pedestal outlet without struggling to grip a heavy cord end with your bare hand.
The 50 amp shore cord takes more abuse than almost any other component on your rig. Repeated plugging and unplugging, heat cycling, accidental kinking at the plug end, and plain old weather degradation all take a toll on the plug itself. When the housing cracks, the blades loosen, or the cord grip fails, the rest of the cable is often perfectly fine -- and replacing just the plug end is straightforward for anyone comfortable working with 50 amp wiring.
Camco's 55255 is a direct NEMA 14-50P male replacement designed specifically for this repair. The four terminal positions -- two hots (X and Y), neutral (W), and ground (G) -- accept the conductors of standard 4-wire 50 amp RV cord. The housing includes a built-in strain relief clamp that locks around the cord jacket, protecting the terminals from pull-out stress every time you disconnect from the pedestal.
Patented molded ergonomic handle makes it easier to plug into and pull out of a 50 amp pedestal outlet, especially useful with stiff or heavy-gauge cords.
Standard 50 amp, 125/250V, 4-wire plug configuration compatible with NEMA 14-50R receptacles found at campgrounds and RV parks nationwide.
Integrated cord clamp secures the cable jacket inside the housing, keeping terminal connections stress-free even with repeated connect/disconnect cycles.
Works for repairing existing 50 amp shore cords or building custom 50 amp pigtails, adapters, and extension ends from raw cable stock.
A 50 amp RV cord uses 4-wire cable: two hot legs (typically black and red, labeled X and Y on the plug), one neutral (white, labeled W), and one ground (green, labeled G). The terminal positions inside the 14-50P housing are physically keyed, but you must land the correct conductor on the correct terminal.
