Is there such an item as a Y adapter that would split a 30 amp receptacle into two separate services? At a campground that I frequent there is only one thirty amp outlet but there is always two of us there. One of us usually plugs to the thirty amp and the other to 120v but it does get to be a problem especially in the heat of summer.
Why would splitting a 30 between the two of you, provide more than one 30 and one 20amp (what you're calling 120vac and the whole thing is 120vac). I mean 30 + 20 = 50 and a lot more than just the 30. Sure, one of you will be short changed in comparison with the other, but still better than maybe being left with next to zero, when your neighbor really cranks things up and not very hard to do in the heat of summer.
