Hi,
I installed a side or mid shore power connector years ago.

Buy a 50amp Bulkhead entrance, $20.00 on Amazon.
Get a length of heavy gauge wire from H.D. or Lowes.
Get a twin 50amp breaker. Not all a/c busses are the same.

I ran my wire from new receptical across shortage area and through the wall into back of A/C panel. On my unit shore power comes into existing 50amp paired breakers (1 set, one breaker on each 120vac line) and through the breakers into the a/c buss. I put a new breaker set on the other end of the buss. This allows for use as needed, rear or side. For complete safety turn OFF the unused breaker. This prevents any accidental a/c issues with the unused receptical.
