I would say YES... However just remember you will only be getting 30AMPS Service...
Using the adapters has their benefits however... You always keep your PLAN Bs in place so you cover other situations that come up...
I have two RV30A-15A adapters laying in the yard right now. I cut up a plastic snap on sandwich box that was big enough for the adapter to fit inside and cut holes in both sides for the cables to come in and go out.. Snap the plastic cover back on and it is pretty weather tight...
I still have my adapters available to us on my trailer when I am at other locations where I might need 30A and 15A service overnight... As long as you can still adapt your 30A MALE end to 50A pedestal connector with an adapter in case you can't plug into 30A anymore then what you want to do will be fine...
I have three sources of power to content with on my off-road POPUP being 50AMP to 30AMP service, 30AMP service, 15A/20A service, and my 120VAC flip lid plug on the side of my trailer that comes from my on-board 120VAC Inverter. This is a 20AMP receptacle.
Looks like this... The middle bottom connector is my shore power flip lid connection on my trailer. The 20AMP flip lid connector on the bottm right is my 1500 PSW Inverter output.
Not shown here is 50A(MALE) to 30A(FEMALE) for connecting into a 60AMP Pedestal connection.
