Reliable 15A Shore Power Inlet for Caravans, RVs, and Mobile Applications

Engineered for Safe, Weather-Resistant 240V Connections in Harsh Australian Conditions

The Transco 15A White Caravan Power Inlet provides a secure and durable connection point for external AC power, purpose-built for caravans, motorhomes, camper trailers, and temporary site structures. Designed to meet the demands of mobile and semi-permanent installations, this recessed inlet ensures consistent power delivery while protecting internal wiring from environmental exposure.

Unlike generic inlets that may degrade under UV, moisture, or physical impact, the Transco unit features an impact-resistant polycarbonate body and a spring-loaded weatherproof cover. This combination shields the 3-pin male connector from dust, water splashes, and accidental damage, reducing the risk of electrical faults and downtime during travel or on-site use.

Key Features

• 15A, 240V AC rating supports standard caravan and RV power requirements
• IP54 weatherproof rating resists dust ingress and water splashes from any direction
• Impact-resistant polycarbonate construction withstands knocks, UV exposure, and temperature extremes
• Spring-loaded hinged cover automatically seals the inlet when not in use, preventing moisture and debris entry
• Recessed mounting design with 70mm x 54mm screw centres for flush, secure installation on vehicle exteriors
• Flat earth pin ensures correct orientation and reliable earthing for safety compliance
• Rear connection shroud and sealing gasket included for straightforward wiring and enhanced weather protection
• Full Australian electrical approval (N26556) confirms compliance with AS/NZS standards

Built for the Road and the Elements

Mobile power systems face unique challenges: vibration, temperature swings, and frequent exposure to rain and dust. The Transco inlet addresses these with a robust polycarbonate housing that resists cracking and fading, even after prolonged sun exposure. The IP54 rating means it is protected against limited dust ingress and water splashes, making it suitable for exterior mounting on caravans, RVs, and site sheds where weatherproofing is critical.

Installation is simplified by the included rear shroud, which shields the screw terminals from moisture and accidental contact, and the pre-formed sealing gasket that sits between the inlet and the mounting surface. The screw-down copper ferrules accept standard wiring, ensuring a low-resistance connection that minimises voltage drop and heat buildup under full 15A load.

Applications Beyond Caravans

While optimised for recreational vehicles, this inlet is equally effective for temporary site offices, portable kiosks, food vans, and marine shore power connections where a reliable 15A inlet is required. Its compact dimensions (80mm W x 110mm L x 52mm D) allow installation in tight spaces, and the white finish blends discreetly with most vehicle exteriors.

For installers and DIY enthusiasts, the inlet’s compatibility with standard 15A extension leads and its clear labelling of active, neutral, and earth terminals reduce setup time and potential wiring errors. The flat earth pin provides an additional safety measure by preventing incorrect insertion of plugs.

Why Choose Transco?

Transco’s Explorer range is designed with Australian conditions in mind, offering a balance of performance, durability, and compliance. The N26556 approval mark gives confidence that the product has been independently tested to meet stringent electrical safety standards, a critical factor for insurance and regulatory requirements in caravan parks and temporary installations.

Compared to unbranded alternatives, this inlet delivers superior impact resistance, a more secure cover mechanism, and verified electrical ratings, reducing the likelihood of premature failure or safety issues.
