120V Shore Power

Shore Power Indicator

The Shore Power Indicator is a device installed on a food trailer that visually or digitally confirms a live connection to an external 120V power source, commonly referred to as shore power. It ensures that electricity is actively flowing into the trailer’s electrical system, allowing operators to verify a stable power supply before powering appliances or critical equipment. This tool is essential during setup at events, commissaries, or service locations where external power is used to run operations.

Use in Food Trailers

  • Instant Power Status: Provides immediate confirmation that the trailer is receiving external power, helping avoid startup delays.
  • Efficient Setup: Streamlines the pre-service checklist by clearly indicating when shore power is connected and stable.
  • Electrical Safety: Reduces the risk of equipment damage by alerting operators to improper wiring or voltage irregularities.
  • Inspection Readiness: Supports compliance with health and safety regulations by verifying that refrigeration and cooking systems have proper power access.
  • Service Continuity: Allows quick identification of power loss during operations, minimizing service disruptions.

Vendor Tips

Install a Shore Power Indicator in a location that is easy to monitor, such as near the power inlet or inside the main electrical panel. Choose models with voltage displays for added diagnostic capability. Include the indicator in routine maintenance checks to ensure dependable performance at every service location.
