20 amp power on marine pedestals seemed to be fairly common in the 70's and 80'. My 25 mk1 has no AC system built in, but came with a power cord that went from a 20amp marine male plug (which looks like a smaller diameter 30 amp male with 3 curved prongs, one being L shape) to a 20 amp

Most of the locations I cruise to have 30 Amp receptacles. However, occasionally I have come across locations with 20 Amp receptacles. That's when my 20 Amp male to 30 Amp female comes in handy. I just have to male sure I don't exceed the current supplied at the 20 Amp receptacle. Alan On Fri,

Adapters are easy to make. You can pick up parts at Home Depot, Lowes or some local hardware store. I have three or four that I hardly ever use, but when I need one, it's nice to have it. Alan On Fri, Jul 21, 2023 at 2:11 PM Bill Coleman via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > I think I

The reason an adapter is not made from 30a to a lesser amperage is that this would be in violation of the electrical code (or codes and standards) as the 20a rated device would be intended for use on a circuit protected by a 30a breaker. Such a device would not receive csa or ul approval for

Stus-List Re: Shore Power Adapters.

There is no such thing. You cannot convert 120V to 240V (or 115V to 230V it is not 125 / 250) in a pigtail format. To get 240V out of 120V you would have to use a step-up or isolation transformer. $500 to $1200+ for a marine use model (and I expect a lot of them need much more than 30A). What

You guys are smarter than me, but I got a Progressive policy 15 years ago and the premium has dropped every year, I don't have a claim. No surveys is my reason. $40,000 value and $500 liabilty and the premium is now under $600. Not sure if they will ever react to a decent claim. No idea.

Unless you're cruising in Europe or UK (or a few other countries) you're not bringing 120V together to 240V. NA electrical grid is 120V. And Marinco does make the 30amp male to 15amp female connector. They are also available from other companies as well for a lot less $. Search Amazon shore power

Thanks Bill. I had Gieco up until May. They fired all US agents and will only go direct and when I tried they denied. They do not want boats older than 20 years now. My agent, Gowrie in CT is one of the best and they found me a new similar policy at progressive. For the same $$ as well.
