I've had lots of TT with 30 amp shore power cords, so I naturally have a 30 amp RV box on the side of my pole barn. Now I'm brand new to a Class A and it's 50 amp cord. I just ordered a dog bone adapter to convert the 50 to a 30, but what I'm wondering is, do I lose half of my MH power? Or does it all power up and I just cant use both A/C's?
No you won't lose half of your MH power the entire coach should have power you just have less to work with. 30 amp is plenty for storage or even staying in as long as you know what everything in the coach requires power wise. If you were at a CG with a 50 amp hook up & you tested with a milti meter the two hots would make 240 volts. After you plug your adapter into your 30 amp outlet the two hots on the four pin end will only be 120 volts.
