Judging by the questions you are asking, I get the idea that you are not very familiar with electricity. Do you have experience with home wiring projects? Adding a circuit for an RV is not difficult, but it can be done wrong, resulting in damage to your RV. There is also always a chance of hurting yourself when dealing with electricity.
If you aren't familiar, you might consider getting a friend who is experienced to help out, or hiring an electrician.
Well... I wired a sub-panel off my breaker panel and then wired a 220 circuit for my 60 gallon air compressor.
I took a long time making sure I had things right and asked a lot of stupid questions to be sure I didn't burn anything up.
It passed inspection so I'm good.
Now all I gotta do is get the right breaker, run it off my sub-panel to an outdoor enclosure with the right receptacle. All this time I thought it was a simple 110 hookup not 220... So now I gotta make sure I have my "you know what" together before I plug anything in.
Thus more stupid questions.
If you did a subpanel and passed inspection, you should be just fine with this project. Carry on.
There are no stupid questions. Especially when electricity is involved.
The diagram posted above by myredracer is an excellent one. Just decide if you want the 30A 120V outlet that you need to power your present TT, or a 50A so you'll be ready if you ever upgrade to a bigger rig.
