PAULINN 15A NEMA 5-15 Flanged Inlet 125V — Weatherproof RV & Boat Shore Power with Hinged Cover

This compact, heavy-duty inlet provides a secure two-pole, three-wire connection for 125V shore or generator power where a permanent hardwired inlet is needed. Built from nickel-coated copper contacts and impact-resistant nylon, it resists corrosion, UV exposure and abrasion for reliable outdoor performance. The integrated hinged cover and waterproof design help keep moisture, dust and debris away from the wiring when the plug is not engaged, making it suitable for boats, RVs, trailers, sheds and other exterior installations.

How does this inlet protect electrical connections outdoors?

The inlet uses a spring-hinged cover and tight sealing to limit exposure to rain, snow and dust. Nickel-coated copper contacts reduce corrosion risk, and the nylon housing resists UV and impact damage that outdoor fixtures commonly face.

• Integrated hinged waterproof cover keeps contacts dry when idle
• Nickel-coated copper contacts minimize oxidation for long life
• UV- and impact-resistant nylon body withstands sun and rough handling
• ETL approval indicates compliance with safety standards

What wiring and installation options are supported?

The inlet accepts No. 12-3 through No. 18-3 cord sizes and includes a see-through wiring block with color-coded crimp-lock clamps to simplify wiring. It’s designed to be hardwired directly into charger systems or shore power circuits with a 2" installation hole requirement.

• Compatible with 12–18 AWG wiring and standard 2" panel cutout
• See-through wiring block helps verify connections visually
• Color-coded positive crimp-lock clamps streamline correct wiring
• Mountable in recessed outlet boxes, panels, trailers and boats

Will this inlet fit my RV, boat or generator hookup?

The inlet is a standard NEMA 5-15 125V, 15A format, commonly used for household-style shore and generator power in light-duty RV and marine applications. Verify your system uses a NEMA 5-15 male plug and that your installation requires a hardwired inlet that supports 15 amps at 125 volts.

• Standard NEMA 5-15 configuration for common shore/generator plugs
• Designed for trailers, campers, RVs, boats, sheds and home chargers
• Not intended for high-amperage or specialized industrial plugs
• Ideal when a permanent, weatherproof inlet is required

How durable and safe is the PAULINN flanged inlet?

Durability comes from a blend of corrosion-resistant metals and rugged polymers, plus ETL approval to indicate compliance with recognized safety standards. The cord-grip and secure mounting reduce strain on wires, and the cover prevents accidental contact or contamination when not in use.

• Rugged construction for prolonged outdoor exposure
• Cord grip protects wiring from pull and stress
• ETL approved for added safety assurance
• Works through varied climates including wet and cold conditions
