30A vs 50A
Just a curious question for all you experts out there, We have a 2002 32V Itasca Sunrise, bought it used, have had it almost 2 years. It has the 30 amp power cord, however, the box the power cord goe...

I thought I said to check the panel box for confirmation
And I thought they were 2 legs of a 3P system. Wouldn't that make them 120d out of phase?
Yes, I am out of my element. Those classes were in 1973 . . . . now you have me thinking vectors, delta vs Y, instantaneous currents and a whole lot of other painful memories.
Come to think of it, if they were 120d out of phase then L1 + L2 would be less than 240 . . . . Think I'll go wash the motorhome!

A 50A circuit is actually 2 120V lines so I would guess they are 25A each. If true the breakers on the campground panel box should reflect this.
