How often are campgrounds 50A only?
Is it very common for a campground to not have 30A and 15A outlets, only 50A outlets? Just wondering if I should buy a 30A female to 50A male adapter such as this.

So the circuit tester is really "convenience insurance" not really to protect the surge suppressor, wouldn't you say?...
Yes. The tester is NOT a replacement for using a surge protector.It does not protect anything just let's you know what is going on with the shore station before you plug in.
Sorry, I had in mind the other way 'round. I understand you two to be saying that the tester is redundant because the surge protector does the same job equally well, but by simply plugging in a little device you can save time not hauling out the cord first. Did I get that right?
There are numerous types of 'plug in' surge protectors and there are 'hard wired' in surge protectors available for RV's.
NOT all of them will show in line wiring problems. Some just will shut off only when a surge occurs the hard wired ones are more intricate and some even show what that tester shows. I have the simple inexpensive plug in surge protector.
The less expensive plug in surge protectors will not shut off when an open ground is at the shore station.
