An angled connector helps direct the cable downward along the RV's exterior, reducing strain on the inlet and minimizing the amount of cable extending outward from the vehicle.
15. Can the SmartPlug R50304A replace my existing RV shore power cord?
Yes, provided your RV has a compatible 50 Amp SmartPlug inlet and the campground connection matches the cordset's pedestal plug. If your RV uses a conventional inlet, a compatible SmartPlug inlet upgrade would be required.

19. What is the difference between the SmartPlug R50304A and a traditional RV shore power cord?
