Reliable Power at the Dock. Safety for Your Vessel.
Your boat’s connection to the dock pedestal is the most critical, yet most overlooked, part of your electrical system. In the saltwater environment of Long Beach and Orange County, corrosion, loose connections, and overheating are constant threats.
Faulty shore power cords and inlets are the number one cause of marina fires. Our specialized inspection and replacement service ensures your vessel receives clean, safe power without the risk of overheating or voltage drops.
Our Shore Power Services
We provide a comprehensive analysis of your AC power entry system. We don't just swap cords; we find the root cause of the heat.
- Shore Power Cord Replacement: We stock and install high-quality 30A and 50A marine-grade power cords.
- Inlet Inspection & Replacement: Removal of burnt or melted inlets and installation of new stainless steel or UV-resistant fixtures.
- Smart Plug Upgrades: We are certified installers of the Smart Plug system—a revolutionary design that eliminates the loose connections and overheating common in traditional twist-lock plugs.
- Breaker & Panel Inspection: Checking the main AC breaker and reverse polarity indicators to ensure internal safety.
- Voltage Drop Testing: ensuring your boat is getting the full power it needs to run Air Conditioning and Battery Chargers efficiently.
Why Upgrade to a Smart Plug?
Traditional twist-type shore power plugs have a design flaw: the metal pins have very little contact area. Over time, oxidation creates resistance, which creates heat. This heat melts the plug and can lead to fire.
We highly recommend upgrading to a Smart Plug system, which offers 20x the electrical contact area and locks securely to the boat, virtually eliminating the risk of overheating.
