a 30-amp cable can only plug into a 30-amp source. i may not have been clear.
the OP is looking to go back to the good ole days of 30-amp RVing cuz the 30-amp cord is easier to handle. the only safe way to do that, IMO, is to use a 50-30 amp adapter at the RV end to which a 30-amp cord is connected between the RV and the 30-amp connection at the post. this presumes the OP's RV has a smart EMS which detects the 30-amp connection. this also presumes that his 50-amp cord is not permanently attached to the RV but rather must be plugged into the RV and the post.
me? i think the bucket idea or the electric reel is the way to go.
