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?
  • I plug into the 30. If it feels loose, I use an adapter and plug into the fifty. You are checking both first, correct?

    Or you could have more.
  • Yes it is OK. No advantage if you have 30 amps available.
