split 50 amp into 2 - 30 amp

The safety of the idea has not been address yet so let me be the first. You have the potential to overload the neutral of the adapter or the neutral of the recptical or the neutral anywhere up stream of that point. If both 30 amps are loaded to say 24 amps then there is 48 amps on the neutral which will be pushing it and the connections. JMHO.

I might be wrong, but I think the neutral will only see the delta amps between the two 50A legs and in your example that should be 0. The only safety issue is if a short happens between the 30A on the dogbone and the 30A CB in the trailer that 30A rated line could be subject to 50A, but is no different than using a single 50A to 30A dogbone which is common practice.

I see no additional safety concerns in what is being recommended except for the fact that those 30A connections are not weatherproof or protected in the linked configurations whereas mine with the in use weatherproof covers solves that safety concern.

Here are pics of my 50A to dual 30A dogbone
