Sockets & Plugs

The connection between boat and berth deserves proper hardware. This collection covers marine shore power connectors and accessories - Hubbell and Marinco 16A and 32A plugs and connector bodies, flush-mount mains inlet sockets, hook-up extension leads and weatherproof shrouds - plus the 12V side: lighter sockets, waterproof USB charging sockets and accessory plugs.

Shore power fittings live in salt spray while carrying mains voltage, so marine-grade sealing and corrosion resistance are not optional extras. Match connector ratings to your installation, inspect pins for corrosion or heat discolouration each season, and replace a lead or connector that has been dropped in the water rather than trusting it. For charging phones and tablets aboard, a dedicated waterproof USB socket beats an adapter in a corroding lighter socket.
