Marinco On-Board Charger Inlet 150BBI 15A 125V Black — Low-Profile UV-Resistant Shore Power

This Marinco inlet provides a compact, weather-resistant shore power entry point engineered for easy installation and dependable service. Built with UV-resistant housing and Perma-Lock terminals, the 150BBI supports standard 15A 125V straight-blade plugs and fits fiberglass and aluminum hulls. Its low-profile cap reduces snagging and keeps the inlet protected when not in use.

How does the 150BBI perform in marine environments?

The inlet is designed for outdoor use with UV-stabilized materials that resist sun degradation and a snug-fitting cap that shields the contact area from spray and debris. It delivers standard 15-amp shore power through a robust straight-blade connection suitable for many onboard chargers and accessories.

• UV-resistant housing and cap for long-term exposure
• Low-profile cap reduces wind and line catch
• 15A/125V straight-blade rating for common shore power
• Durable construction resists corrosion in marine settings

How easy is it to install the Marinco 150BBI inlet?

Installation is straightforward for DIYers and pros alike: the inlet mounts to fiberglass or aluminum hulls and includes color-coded wire entrance holes to simplify wiring. Perma-Lock terminals secure conductors without the worry of loose connections over time.

• Mounts cleanly to fiberglass and aluminum hulls
• Color-coded wire holes speed up hook-up and reduce wiring errors
• Perma-Lock terminals clamp conductors for long-term reliability
• Compact footprint simplifies panel or transom placement

What safety and compatibility features should I know about?

The inlet follows standard electrical specifications for 15A/125V straight-blade systems, making it compatible with common shore power cords and small onboard chargers. The cap and housing design help prevent water intrusion and physical damage to the receptacle when it’s not in use.

• Standard straight-blade configuration for broad compatibility
• Cap protects contacts from water and debris when disconnected
• Perma-Lock terminals minimize loosening from vibration
• Color-coded entries reduce wiring mistakes and improve safety

What maintenance or care does the inlet require?

Routine checks keep the inlet functioning smoothly: inspect the cap seal, clean debris from the face, and periodically verify terminal tightness. Minimal upkeep preserves electrical contact integrity and exterior appearance in salty or sunny conditions.

• Inspect cap and seal for wear or dirt periodically
• Rinse and dry exterior after heavy salt exposure
• Check terminal tightness during scheduled electrical maintenance
• Replace the cap if cracked or no longer sealing properly

Who is this for: The Marinco 150BBI inlet is ideal for boat owners, marine electricians, and DIY enthusiasts who need a compact, reliable shore power entry rated for 15A/125V. It suits small to medium boats that require a low-profile, weather-resistant inlet that’s straightforward to install and maintain.
