Proper Power Receptacle For Home?
We always kept the TT in storage but now keep it in our side yard. We use the 30a to15a dogbone but we will be having the proper receptacle put in place so we don’t have to bother with extension cord...

Just put in the 50amp lines back to the panel. The cost to run and connect a 50amp vs 30amp cabling is negligible but it sets you up to handle anything.
Then you an choose:
- Just a 50amp outlet and use a dogbone (saves a little money but not much)
- Put in an RV park style pedestal that has 50/30/20amp outlets (all connected up to the same 50amp cabling which is not an issue).
I would lean toward the RV park style pedestal. That way you don't need adapters and if you need to plug in a power tool or something, you can just plug it into it's own outlet rather than running it thru the trailer electrical system first.
