30amp Y Splitter for 2 RV's

I installed 30amp service on my barn for the purpose of running my travel trailer electric system with A/C. It serves as a bunk house for boys and visitors. It works great.

This weekend I will have a second RV, Class C with 30 amp connectivity actually, at our place and it will be a hot week. We would like to hook up both the Class C and my TT to the single 30amp receptacle.

I assume the purpose of a 30amp Y splitter is to run two RV's out of one outlet 30am receptacle? Anyone use these before?

Thanks for your insights and experiences.

You can add a Y adapter. But there's no way the two RV's will be able to run the AC at the same time.

Have not used one. However for best results running two air conditioners set the water and fridge on propane for both RVs. No microwave, hair drier or coffee pot if the air is running.

Ill agree, and never seen a 30 amp splitter. Its probably a 12 2 wire. If you need 2 acs maybe run a heavy duty cord to another outlet.

My AC will trip a 15 amp breaker. If you have two RVs both running an AC, that will most likely trip the 30 amp breaker. And you sure couldn’t run anything else.
