have it plugged in at home? If so, did you convert where you plug in your fifth wheel to a 50 amp????
I am curious - a regular wall socket in a house - how many amps can be drawn from that?
This is all stemming from DH thinking we need to get an electrician over here to get us a 50amp plug in. Keep in mind we are NOT going to be staying in the coach while at home - maybe a day here or day there just for fun, though.
Unless you're' going to have every light on, the furnace running and use the MW oven at the same time, you're probably fine on a "regular" plug. If you plan on any heavy draw, like the A/C, you'll want to use the main shore cable, 50A in your case. It's really not that expensive and it's sure a lot cheaper than a fire from an overloaded circuit. I've got a 30A at my house and use it whenever I'm there.
