I was hoping to back feed my house thru the shore power cord by killing the main power flip a switch in the motor home
Never EVER use a cord to "Backfeed" Never put power to a MALE plug. only to a female outlet... Never Backfeed
use a proper generator transfer switch. put a proper heavy duty outlet on a breaker all its own in the RV and use a custom made extension cord to connect the OUTLET on the RV to the INLET on the house. NEVER BACKFEED never put power to a plug
Imagine the RV is set in backfeed mode and someone picks up the plug with bare hands and... BY By victim. HELLO LAWYERS.
