Power for Macerator Pump

[SilverRhino]

I just purchased the Flo Jet pump for our trailer. The main use will be to pump the gray water tanks out into my 42 gallon portable tank when parked without sewer hookup.

My plan is to provide a dedicated circuit with a two connector plug in in the upper portion of the UDC to keep it dry. Figured this way I could just plug in the pump when needed and then easily unplug when done. How do those of you who are using these sewage pumps provide power to your units??

Thanks for any input!

Travel Safe!

My macerator doesn't get much use, but when I use it I have a #12 gauge extension cord connected to the pump and alligator clips on the other end. I just clip on to the battery and macerate away.

I added the female side of the Bargman connector to my Flojet, so I just plug it into the trailer's umbilical cord.

Same way I did it,

I ran 8 gauge wire from the main battery feed down to the frame rail near the sewer outlet. I used industrial battery connectors on the pump for power.
