120V Shore Power

Shore Cord Gland

The Shore Cord Gland is a weather-resistant fitting installed at the point where a shore power cord enters a food trailer. It serves two main purposes: sealing the entry point to prevent moisture, dust, and debris from entering the trailer, and relieving mechanical strain on the cord to protect internal electrical connections. In mobile food operations, this component is typically mounted on an exterior wall and is used when connecting to a 120V external power source at events, commissaries, or during downtime.

Use in Food Trailers

  • Weather Protection: Creates a sealed barrier at the power cord entry point to block rain, dust, and contaminants from entering the trailer’s electrical system.
  • Cord Strain Relief: Minimizes stress on internal wiring by securing the cord, reducing the risk of electrical faults or disconnections.
  • Code Compliance: Supports adherence to electrical safety codes and health inspection requirements specific to mobile food units.
  • Quick Setup: Enables fast and secure shore power connections, improving setup efficiency at vending locations.
  • Durability: Built from outdoor-rated materials that resist UV exposure, temperature extremes, and repeated use.
  • Professional Appearance: Delivers a clean, finished look that reflects the build quality of the trailer and supports a professional brand image.

Vendor Tips

Choose a shore cord gland that matches your power cord diameter and carries an outdoor-use rating. Look for models with gasketed seals and secure clamping to ensure protection against water intrusion. Inspect regularly for signs of wear, cracking, or seal degradation, especially in trailers that operate in wet or extreme environments.
