next time try and turn the circuit breaker OFF in the house for the circuit where you are hooking up to before hooking up the RV and the spark will go away. This procedure should also be done when hooking up at a RV park. Turn the breaker on the post to OFF. The spark is caused because there is something on in the RV, most likely the Convertor. Also turn the circuit breaker OFF before unhooking for the same reason.
