30A breaker on 50A receptacle?

Install the 30 amp breaker and install a 30 amp receptacle. Then use the 50 to 30 adapter. That way, Nobody else will ever think it is nothing more than a 30 amp receptacle. Leave the 50 to 30 connected to the receptacle and there will be no hassle when connecting your 50 amp cord. KISS is what is needed. Doug
