Please verify with a meter that your outlet at the house is for an RV (110v) and not a 220v accessory if it is 30Amp. Installers do make mistakes and it would be an expensive one if it were 30A/220v.
I went through this when building my new house. I explained to the contractor, and subsequently to the electricians, that I wanted a 30 amp RV plug. They installed one, but wired it for 220! Luckily, I asked before I ever plugged into it and it was an easy fix, but it could have been an expensive mistake.
