Duel 30amp Yadapter
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 ...

Some very correct answers.
You are better off with one of you on the 30 and the other on the 20 or even 15.
Were you to Y off the 30, the TOTAL the two trailers can pull (does NOT have to be equal) is just shy of 30 amps. Yes, if you both run equal loads it would be 15 plus 15.
But, if each of you are running a roof A/C and either of you decides to use the microwave for some popcorn, you will trip the breaker.
