These are available at any RV supply for about a hundred bucks...they come with a plug on each end and are actually made to go on the other end of your power cord... I chose to install it permanently (between the 2 metal electrical boxes there in the picture belo...

RJ...my 1999 has that power cord arrangement....they started that in 1997. The plugs, used by Airstream, are common to the Marine Industry and are a wee bit costly.

In our rigs, in-my-opinion, they aren't worth the trouble they can cause, like kicking the refrigerator off....replaced mine with a n...

Correct Robert....

If the GFI is tripped the rear 110 outlets stop working as they are behind the GFI outlet.

That can create a problem with the frig being turned off and you not being aware of it.

Thats my gardening greenhouse... and he's not welcome there.

He doesn't like rubber bullets, cracker-shells over his head, or the water hose much either...
