Is it not possible to run a second 120v line (different phase), from your service panel to that 30 amp receptacle on your pole barn, then install a regular 50-amp receptacle?
I predict you will not be happy in the long run "managing" 30 amps for a 50-amp MH. Also I predict you will get tired of changing that 30 amp breaker due to it becoming weak from frequent tripping.
On contrare 30 amps is plenty much unless your living in it in summer while trying to run two roof AC units and other stuff to boot
so no you don't need 50 unless(like I said)
If you are so happy with 30-amp service to a 50-amp unit, why have 50 amps at all? Guess I am too 'do-it-myselfer'. Unless that pole barn is a long, long way from my service panel I would change it to 50-amp if I had to run new wiring and conduit.
