Shore power cut

We had our shore 120volt power cord pulled out and cut by cooper thieves.
How does the shore power cord connect to the interior on a Zinger 280RK ?
Is there a connection in the interior wall or does it route dircet the power converter?
Just trying to understand how it is routed and how to access the electrical circuit?

Thanks for any insight you can provide

I don't know about your Zinger, but on the Cruiser we had, it came into the rig and hooked to a junction box. That area had a false wall/plus storage room for the cord.I could remove a panel and have immediate access to cord and the junction box. From there it routed up to the electrical panel.
If your cord pushes in thru the wall for storage, there probably is a panel inside you can remove to get to a junction box.

On our Cruiser the cord holding area was directly behind the power center. The cord was attached to the floor then directly into the power center. The front of the cabinet had screws to remove and everything was accessible. Look in the area of your power center and see if there is a unused space behind it. You may also look thru the cord hatch into the storage compartment.

So sorry to hear that. I hate a thief!

Now is a good opportunity to upgrade to a nice detachable power cord. The newest are called 'Smartplugs'. You can get a conversion kit that should include wiring instructions.
Available any place RV supplies are sold.
If you don't understand the basic 3-wire power cord for your RV, it might be best to let a shop do the job.
