I ordered the AC200P-12V/25A RV cable. It has a black “Aviaion Plug”. This differentiates (as far as I can tell with the dearth of technical information, like plug part numbers) from the other Aviation Plugs because it is black and not blue, and the blue plugs have threads on the inside so it can screw down to the connector, and the black one doesn’t.
I went to try and plug it in, but it doesn’t feel secure. The female side (on the AC200p) has threads but the plug doesn’t. So it is a friction plug … except that it doesn’t go in all the way. I tried using it for my fridge but it actually fell out.
So what gives? Can I use a standard male aviation plug (with threads), or is there something special about the black plug??
Maybe you could share some links or pictures to the cables you mean? The only difference im aware of between balck and blue plug is, that one made out of plastic and the other out of metal.
Hi @Nozzie, Our AC200P comes in two versions, distinguished by the RV port. Please note that if the RV port is made of metal, it is the old version, and if the port is made of plastic, it is the new version.
Thanks to @Selfmadestrom for the helpful response. Yes, please provide photos of the port and cables so we can confirm further.
