SmartPlug enhances 16A & 32A power connectors

Smartplug Power Connectors

Feb 3, 2023

SmartPlug Systems, the leading manufacturer of safety-focused shore power equipment, has enhanced the European-compliant 16A/230V and 32A/230V models of its connector with new BF16 and BF32 cord seals. The change incorporates the proven reliability of a unique compression nut design for increased water-tightness and cable grip, and superior support against strain and vibration.

With numerous certifications including ETL and CE, the 16A/230V and 32A/230V SmartPlug connectors are ideal for boats based in or traveling to European waters. They provide over 27 times more metal-to-metal contact than traditional threaded ring connectors. This reduces electrical resistance and the potential for overheating. The unique asymmetrical design is also easier to use because of effortless orientation without misalignment. The connectors push straight in to the inlets and lock automatically. The dual locking side clips allow for one-handed use and make a secure, watertight seal.
