Blue Sea Systems 12 Volt Plug with Single Extension Socket, 10A Fuse, 6 ft Cord

Overview

The Blue Sea Systems 1012 is a 12V plug with a single extension socket that adds a power point up to 6 feet from the source, using heavy-duty 18 gauge wire and a built-in 10A fuse at the plug.

It works well on boats where the main outlet is fixed at the dash or switch panel and the accessory needs power farther away. The plug uses a moisture-proof sealing ring so it seats firmly in the outlet, and the socket has a watertight cap when it is not in use.

The plug and socket lock together with a twist-lock connection, which helps them stay engaged in spray and vibration. Nickel-plated copper alloy current-carrying parts help maintain solid contact in damp marine service.

Key features

• 12V plug with a single extension socket on a cord up to 6 feet long
• Built-in 10A fuse and "ON" LED at the plug for quick power confirmation
• Moisture-proof sealing ring at the plug and a watertight cap on the socket
• Twist-lock connection helps prevent the plug from backing out of the socket
• Internal strain relief and cord seal for repeated use where the cord moves
• Nickel-plated copper alloy used for the current-carrying components
• Socket can be mounted on the front panel, rear panel, or on the surface

Installation and fit

This setup is useful when you want a removable 12V outlet closer to the helm, cockpit seating, a berth, or a work area in the cabin without rewiring the whole panel. The mounting options give you more freedom when space behind a dash or locker face is limited.

Because the connection locks together, it suits boats that see regular pounding, engine vibration, or spray around the helm. It is a good match for 12V accessories that need a stable connection and stay within the plug's 10A fused circuit.

Compatibility and use on board

It pairs with Blue Sea Systems 12V sockets that use the same locking plug format, including the brand's dash sockets and 360 panel socket setup. On board, that makes it useful for moving power to a spotlight, handheld electronics charger, portable fan, or other 12V accessory without leaving a loose adapter hanging at the outlet.
