Finally installed a 30 amp outlet! Not on an RV post but this works for the RV electric cable. It was really difficult to fit the oversize wire nuts for size 10 wire into that small conduit box. I cut into a new line that was installed for a steam shower in the master bathroom. Now I can run the air conditioner and the refrigerator at the same time, (but not the steam shower!)
In case you are wondering, I drilled a 5/8" hole in the conduit box cover and pulled some excess wire down into the box. Then I used a conduit connecter ring and hose washers to screw the boxes together. The 30 amp cord is too thick for the corner opening, but otherwise I'm happy to have the new outlet and it's expandable cover.
