When a shore cable is plugged in, AC mains power is fed through the inlet to the onboard distribution system, typically via a shore power isolator, RCD or inverter\/charger such as a Victron MultiPlus or Quattro. The polyamide body is well suited to damp and outdoor environments where a metal fitting is not required or preferred.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2P\/3W wiring arrangement means the inlet carries a single live conductor, a neutral and a protective earth. This is the standard configuration for single-phase 16A shore connections in leisure marine and caravan use across the UK and EU. The hinged protective cover keeps the socket face clean and dry when the shore cable is disconnected, which matters in exposed deck or exterior panel locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSKU: SHP301603000\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCurrent rating: 16A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVoltage rating: 250Vac\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConfiguration: 2-pole\/3-wire (2P\/3W)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBody material: Polyamide (nylon)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCover: Included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.23 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGTIN: 8719076007487\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShore power inlet on sailing yachts, motorboats and canal boats.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMains AC entry point on motorhomes, campervans and caravans.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePanel-mounted AC inlet on off-grid cabins, site offices and portable power enclosures.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReplacement inlet on existing shore power installations where the original fitting has degraded.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eWhat Is Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 x Power Inlet Polyamide 16A\/250Vac (2P\/3W)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 x Protective cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis inlet carries mains AC voltage and must be installed by a qualified electrician or competent marine\/vehicle electrical engineer.

Ensure the inlet is correctly earthed as part of the 2P\/3W circuit. The protective cover should always be closed when the shore cable is not connected.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59863718461774,"sku":"SHP301603000","price":52.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3698\/8238\/files\/VoltaconSolar_-_SHP301603000_-_Power_Inlet_Polyamid_with_cover_16A-250Vac_2p-3w.webp?v=1781183701","url":"https:\/\/voltaconsolar.com\/products\/victron-shore-power-inlet-polyamide-16a-250vac-2p3w","provider":"VoltaconSolar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
