Camco30 Amp25 FeetCamco 55501 Power Grip 30 Amp Locking Extension Cord -- 25 Foot, TT-30P to L5-30R

Run shore power to your RV from a full 25 feet away. The Camco 55501 bridges a standard 30 amp campground pedestal (TT-30P male plug) to a marine-style locking 30 amp inlet (L5-30R female socket), with a threaded locking ring that locks out accidental disconnections and a Power Grip handle design that makes plugging and unplugging easier even in low-light or wet conditions.

25 Feet of Reach with a Locked, Weatherproof Connection

Tight campsite hookups and awkwardly placed pedestals are a constant frustration for RV owners. The Camco 55501 gives you 25 feet of heavy-duty cord so you can position your rig without fighting the power connection. The male end is a standard NEMA TT-30P -- the flat-blade 30 amp plug used on virtually every campground pedestal in North America. The female end is a NEMA L5-30R locking socket designed for marine-style 30 amp RV power inlets.

The threaded locking ring on the female end threads over the inlet collar and locks the cord in place, preventing it from working loose from vibration, foot traffic, or a wayward tug on the cable. When it is time to disconnect, simply unthread the ring and pull -- no tools needed. The bright yellow Power Grip handles give you something to grab onto, which matters when your hands are cold, wet, or gloved.

TT-30P to L5-30R

Standard campground 30A male plug on one end, marine-style locking 30A female socket on the other -- no adapters required for most 30A RV setups.

Threaded Locking Ring

Included locking ring threads onto the inlet collar to create a weatherproof, pull-resistant connection at the female socket end.

Power Grip Handles

Oversized yellow grip handles on both ends allow confident plugging and unplugging without wrestling the cord -- especially useful in rain or cold weather.

25-Foot Black Jacket

Full 25 feet of flexible black cord gives you the reach to park where you want rather than where the pedestal forces you. Jacket is UV- and weather-resistant.

Why the Locking Female End Matters

Many RV shore power inlets -- especially those found on older coaches and marine-influenced designs -- use a twist-lock L5-30R receptacle rather than the flat TT-30 socket found on the pedestal. This cord handles both ends correctly in a single run, eliminating the need for a pigtail adapter stacked onto a standard extension cord.

Fitment Note -- Check Your RV Inlet Before Ordering

This cord is specifically designed for RVs with a marine-style L5-30R locking inlet on the coach. If your RV has a standard TT-30R (flat-blade, non-locking) inlet, you need a standard 30A extension cord, not this locking version. The female end of this cord will not seat correctly in a flat TT-30R receptacle. If you are unsure, look at your shore power inlet: a locking inlet has a round face with a central ground pin and two angled blade slots arranged in a circular pattern.

Weight Note

This cord assembly weighs approximately 22.5 lbs. Factor that into storage planning -- a dedicated cord storage bag or reel is recommended for frequent use.

Storage and Maintenance Tips
  • Coil the cord loosely in a figure-eight pattern rather than a tight circle to prevent internal conductor fatigue over time.
  • Inspect the jacket, plug blades, and locking ring before each use. Replace the cord if the jacket is cracked or the blades show corrosion or pitting.
  • Apply a light coat of dielectric grease to the female socket contacts once or twice per season to prevent corrosion at the connection point.
  • Store in a cord bag or storage compartment away from direct UV exposure when not in use.

Important Information
  • This cord is rated for 30 amps at 125 volts only. Do not use with 50 amp RV systems or 240V applications.
  • The female end is an L5-30R locking socket. It will not properly connect to a standard non-locking TT-30R RV inlet -- verify your coach inlet type before ordering.
  • Never use a damaged, cracked, or pinched cord. Inspect the full length of the jacket before each hookup.
  • Do not run the cord under rugs, through walls, or in areas where it may be pinched or abraded.
  • Ensure the campground pedestal breaker is off before connecting or disconnecting the cord.
  • This cord weighs 22.5 lbs -- store it properly to avoid tripping hazards in the storage bay.
  • Limited 90-day warranty covers manufacturer defects. Does not cover damage from overloading, improper use, or weather exposure.
