Valterra50 Amp Shore PowercETL ListedValterra A10-50INBKVP Mighty Cord 50 Amp Power Inlet -- Black

A robust, weatherproof 50 amp shore power inlet built for permanent RV sidewall or bumper-end mounting. The threaded collar locks your cord set in place so road vibration and accidental tugs don't interrupt your connection -- and the spring-loaded watertight cover keeps the contacts dry when you're unplugged.

Secure Shore Power, Rain or Shine

The Valterra Mighty Cord A10-50INBKVP is a 50 amp, 125/250-volt shore power inlet designed for flush or surface mounting on the exterior wall of a Class A motorhome, fifth wheel, travel trailer, or toy hauler. Its durable polyester housing resists UV exposure and road grime, while the threaded locking ring on the inlet face grips the cord set's connector collar -- eliminating the loose, rattling connection that plagues standard snap-fit inlets.

The spring-loaded watertight cover snaps closed over the contacts when not in use, providing protection from rain, dust, and insects. Rated for 50 amp service at 125/250 volts, this inlet accepts the standard NEMA 14-50 style cord set used at campground pedestals and home RV charging stations across North America.

Threaded Cord Retention

Integral threads on the inlet face lock the cord set collar securely, preventing accidental disconnection from vibration or tension on the cable.

Watertight Flip Cover

Spring-loaded hinged cover seals the contact face when unplugged, keeping moisture, dirt, and insects out of the 50 amp contacts.

UV-Resistant Polyester Body

Durable polyester construction handles prolonged exterior exposure without cracking or fading -- suitable for sidewall mounting in sun-intensive climates.

cETL Safety Listed

Certified to Canadian and US electrical safety standards via cETL listing, meeting campground and insurance requirements for RV shore power connections.

Installation Overview

The A10-50INBKVP mounts through a cutout in the RV's exterior wall or existing junction box opening. The two mounting holes (center-to-center spacing: 2-7/16 inches) accept standard hardware to draw the inlet flush against the wall surface. The wiring connection is made inside the coach wall to your rig's 50 amp feed -- four conductors: two hot legs (typically black and red), one neutral (white), and one ground (green).

Proper Wiring Required: This inlet is the exterior-facing receptacle only. A qualified RV technician or experienced DIYer should connect the four-wire 50 amp feed from the RV's power panel to the inlet's terminal lugs. Double-check polarity and torque terminals to spec before closing the wall.

Compatibility and Cord Sets

This inlet accepts 50 amp NEMA 14-50 style male plugs -- the same connector used on Valterra's own Mighty Cord 50 amp extension cords and the industry-standard shore power cords supplied with most 50 amp RVs. It is not compatible with 30 amp (TT-30) or 15/20 amp cord sets without an adapter.

30 Amp Rig? Valterra offers a matching 30 amp inlet (A10-30INBKVP) in the same Mighty Cord series and the same black finish. Make sure you select the inlet rated for your RV's service amperage.

Weatherproofing and Maintenance

Maintenance Tips
  • Inspect the cover gasket annually for cracking or compression set -- replace if the cover no longer seals tightly.
  • Apply a small amount of dielectric grease to the contact pins before plugging in at the start of each season to prevent corrosion.
  • Clean the contact face with electrical contact cleaner if you notice discoloration or pitting from oxidation.
  • After any hard rain, open the cover and visually confirm no water has pooled inside the inlet housing before connecting shore power.
