Camco60-Inch Braided SteelWeather ResistantCamco 44290 Power Grip Cable Lock -- 60-Inch Shore Power Security

Keep your RV power cord, dog bone adapter, or power defender locked to the campground pedestal where it belongs. The Camco Power Grip Cable Lock uses a 60-inch vinyl-coated braided steel wire and a keyed PVC lock head to secure handled power cables against opportunistic theft -- at crowded campgrounds, rallies, or any site where you're leaving your rig unattended.

Stop Shore Power Theft Before It Starts

Replacement RV power cords and dog bone adapters are not cheap, and they disappear from campground pedestals more often than most owners expect. The Camco 44290 gives you a simple, low-profile way to thread a heavy-duty braided steel cable through the handle of any handled power cable -- dog bones, 30-amp or 50-amp cords, power defenders -- loop it around the pedestal box, and lock it down in under a minute.

The lock head end features a durable PVC housing with a retractable keyhole cover that keeps moisture and road grime out of the cylinder. Two matching keys are included so you have a spare. The free end of the cable is looped, letting you wrap multiple passes around the pedestal or gang two handled cables together with one lock.

60-Inch Braided Steel Wire

Long enough to wrap around most power pedestals multiple times, or to link two handled cords together simultaneously.

Vinyl-Coated Cable

Durable PVC jacket protects the braided steel core and prevents the wire from scratching your cord handles or the pedestal finish.

Retractable Keyhole Cover

Spring-loaded cover on the PVC lock head keeps the keyhole dry and debris-free in rain, humidity, and dusty campsite conditions.

Two Matching Keys Included

Both keys ship with the lock so you can stash a spare in your tow vehicle or keep one with your campsite toolkit.

Compatible Power Cable Types

The Power Grip Cable Lock is designed for handled power cables -- meaning any cord or adapter that has a molded grip or D-ring that the cable can thread through. Common compatible items include:

  • Camco Power Grip dog bone adapters (30A-to-50A, 50A-to-30A, and 15A-to-30A)
  • Camco Power Defender surge protectors with handles
  • Standard 30-amp RV extension cords with molded handles
  • Standard 50-amp RV extension cords with molded handles
  • Other brand handled power cables with a grip or loop large enough for the 60-inch wire to pass through
Pro Tip -- Double-Wrap for Extra Security: Pull the cable through the cord handle, wrap it around the pedestal post or the pedestal's cord-exit slot twice, pass the free looped end back through, then snap on the lock head. Two wraps significantly increase resistance to quick-pull theft attempts.

How to Use the Power Grip Cable Lock

The locking system is straightforward and takes less than 60 seconds once you have the routine down:

  • Insert the key and remove the lock head from the cable pin.
  • Thread the free cable end through the handle(s) of your power cord or dog bone adapter.
  • Wrap the cable around the power pedestal as many times as the 60-inch length allows.
  • Pass the cable end through the looped end to cinch the wrap.
  • Reattach the lock head to the pin and remove the key.
  • To release, re-insert the key, remove the lock head, and unwrap the cable.
Note on Fit: This lock is designed for handled cables only. It is not intended to secure bare cord ends without a grip or handle. If your power cord does not have a molded handle or D-ring, the cable will have nothing solid to anchor against.
Storage Tip: Coil the cable loosely -- do not kink it -- and store in the included or a small drawstring bag to prevent the vinyl coating from cracking over repeated seasons. Rinse the keyhole cover with fresh water after exposure to saltwater environments.

Important Information
  • This lock is a theft deterrent, not a certified security device. It is designed to discourage opportunistic theft, not defeat a determined attack with cutting tools.
  • Compatible with handled power cables only -- dog bones, handled cords, power defenders with a grip or D-ring. Not suitable for bare-end cords without a handle.
  • Do not use this cable to support or strain-relieve the weight of a power cord hanging from a pedestal. It is a security wrap, not a strain relief mount.
  • Keep the retractable keyhole cover closed when the lock is in use to prevent moisture and debris from damaging the cylinder.
  • Inspect the vinyl coating before each season. Replace the cable if the steel core is exposed or if the cable shows signs of kinking, fraying, or corrosion.
  • Warranty is limited to 90 days from date of purchase per Camco's terms.
