Shore power question
Is it okay to plug 30 amp camper into 50 amp campground receptacle using an adapter? Is there any advantage doing so, if both 30 and 50 amp are available?

You may have less voltage drop on the 50 vs the 30A.
Or you could have more.
There will be no up or down in voltage. Voltage drop has to do with amp draw and wire size and distance, it does not accrue at the plug.What you will have is a better tighter connection with the 50 because of less use. Always plug your 30 into a 50 if available.
Our statements were correct, just did not get into specifics as to why.
