Shoreline Load Rating refers to the maximum electrical load, measured in amps, that a mobile food trailer can safely draw from an external shore power connection, such as a building outlet or event-supplied power pedestal. This rating is critical to prevent overloading the trailer’s electrical system and to ensure proper operation of appliances and equipment during service. It is especially important when connecting to temporary power sources at events, commissaries, or commercial kitchens.
Before connecting to any external power source, confirm that the available shore power meets or exceeds your trailer’s shoreline load rating. Use heavy-duty, properly rated extension cords and connectors to maintain safety and prevent voltage drop. Clearly label your trailer’s power requirements near the inlet connection to assist with quick and safe setup at events or inspections.
