I can't find where my power cord connects to the boat

[Alex_Blackwood]

The item fitted to the boat should have PINS ready to engage in the HOLES of the trailing lead plug. Simple really ......

If the trailing lead has PINS both ends - watch out - you can have a nasty shock .... possibly fatal. The cable should have male one end and female other. The male plugs into shore ... female plugs into boat.

Socket

Socket

Oh Dear .... forgive me for saying plug ...

Funny that online you can find many references to Male PLUGS ..... Female PLUGS .....

Anyway - I regard the FIXED socket on boat ....

Couldn't resist it And don't believe everything you read on line

A better way to refer to electrical plugs would be male and sockets as female even if round or square/rectangular as in the UK
