****** UPDATE TO SITUATION *****
I was just informed that the circuit breaker is an outdated out of code Federal Pacific Energy board, which, the landlord refuses to update. The concern is that, with these breakers known to be 1 out of 4 faulty, that the breaker wouldn't trip causing a fire...However they've been in this house for 13 years, and have used the 30A dryer on a 20A circuit...Proving my point that the RV would barely use any energy compared to that dryer...It's difficult using facts and logic to prove a point to the paranoid.
