NEMA L5-30P Male Twist Locking Plug American Power Cord, 30A, 125V, UL/cULus/ETL Certified

The 30 A 125 V NEMA L5-30P is typically used for locking 125 V connections for generators, RVs, temporary power, lighting and equipment where the cord must not vibrate loose. Selecting the correct 30 A 125 V locking connector ensures the contacts and cable can carry the load without overheating and that the single-phase supply is connected with the proper grounding and polarity.

The NEMA L5-30P is the locking male plug, typically fitted on the end of a power cord or equipment inlet lead, and it only mates with a matching NEMA L5-30R female receptacle (socket-outlet or cord connector). It carries 30 A at 125 V in a 2-pole, 3-wire (grounded) configuration, so the outlet, wiring and overcurrent protection must all be rated for at least 30 A.

No. NEMA connectors are keyed by voltage, current, phase and grounding, so the NEMA L5-30P mates only within its own 30 A 125 V family. The locking L5 is the twist-lock 125 V counterpart of the straight-blade 5-series and is not interchangeable with the non-locking TT-30 RV connector despite both being 30 A 125 V. When two configurations must be joined, use a properly rated, UL-listed adapter or cord set, and never exceed the lowest current rating in the chain.

Yes.
