Are you talking about where your power cord connects to your trailer or to the campground power pedestal or some other place?

for starters I would tape a large piece of plastic bag, like a gallon freezer bag over the top and sides of the plug outlet on the side of the trailer and see if that helps keep the water out... if not then the water is coming in from somewhere other than the outside...
