Many marinas don’t have a dedicated 100A receptacle, requiring you to combine two 50A outlets to power your yacht. This is where a Smart-Y Adapter becomes indispensable.

What is a Smart-Y Adapter?
A Smart-Y Adapter combines two separate 50A 120/240V shore power receptacles into a single 100A supply. Unlike a simple Y-splitter, a Smart-Y includes automatic paralleling control that checks phase alignment.

Why Phase Checking Matters
If the two outlets are on different phases or wired incorrectly, connecting them without protection can:

• Damage sensitive equipment
• Cause dangerous voltage imbalances
• Trip breakers or create fire hazards

Steps for Safe Use

1. Inspect Both Outlets:
   Use a polarity tester to confirm proper wiring.
2. Connect One Cord at a Time:
   Plug in each 50A cord carefully.
3. Verify the Indicator:
   ANG Smart-Y Adapters have status indicators to confirm correct phase alignment.
4. Secure the Cords:
   Keep connections dry and strain-relieved.
5. Monitor Load:
   Avoid running high-startup equipment all at once.

ANG Advantage
ANG Smart-Y Adapters feature:

• IP56-rated enclosures
• Automatic phase detection and correction
• Robust marine-grade connectors
• Compact design for easy stowage

Tip:
Never use a basic splitter without verification—it’s not worth the risk.
