SouthWire 12" 15 Amp Male to 30 Amp Female RV Adapter

The Southwire 15AM30AF12 RV adapter cord lets you power a 30 amp RV inlet from a standard 15 amp household style outlet. A short 12 inch dogbone cord with a 15 amp male plug on one end and a 30 amp RV receptacle on the other provides a simple way to keep batteries charged and light loads running when full 30 amp service is not available.

This adapter is built with copper conductors and a weather resistant PVC jacket so it can handle typical outdoor RV use. Molded Easy T Pull handles on each end make it easier to plug in and unplug without straining the cord or outlet.

FAQ

Q: Can I run my RV air conditioner through this adapter?
A: Generally no. A 15 amp household circuit is not designed to support the high startup load of most RV air conditioners. Use this adapter for battery charging and light loads.

Q: Will this convert my RV from 30 amp to 15 amp permanently?
A: No. It is a temporary adapter for connecting to a lower amp source. Your RV is still wired for 30 amp service.
