Anybody no if you can run a 50 amp power former on a 30 amp service or do you need one for each service

but i have never had low voltage on 50amp, on the occasions i used it
I think your mistaken here; most rv parks have 50amp outlet and a 30amp one. the power supply comes from the same source so if u meter each part of the 50 amp out and the one from the 30 amp they should(will) have the identical voltage supply
i would not know about most RV parks
i am NOT there
like i said, my experience ... never had low voltage on the few times i had a 50 amp hookup
If you are unfortunate enough be where it seems everyone wants to use electric heat and not buy LP, then yes maybe you have experienced problems
again not germaine to the OP question
his question was can he use it on 30 amps will it hurt
not a question about low voltage on 50, he like you and others, has a need for it on 50amp, or it would NOT be in his RV
i have NOT needed one
yes i have thought about 'maybe someday'
