Power Cord

I just came across a 30 amp pedestal to RV cord, free. Can or will this cord connect to my Cedar Creek 50 amp socket? My 2018 trailer is 150 miles away from here getting fixed again! Thinking of using this cord to hook up to a generator, maybe. Thanks, Dan

    If the power cord looks like this one, it will not connect directly to your 50 amp RV. And I have never seen an adapter to connect that type 30 amp cord to a 50 amp connection.

    I don't think there is an adapter for the trailer end so the answer is no. If you change the end(s) then you can make it into anything you want as long as you limit it to 30 amp.

    You will need an adapter. Available at Walmart.
    Gouing to many gensets you will need another adapter.
    I would be getting a genset that puts out 120/240 and has a four wire connector for direct connection to an adapter straight to rig's cord.
