Accidentally plugged into 220v
So yes I made a mistake and wired the RV outlet into a 240v dual pole breaker at the house . The converter is toast . I have a keystone Laredo fifth wheel . I took the tv and microwave out and test...

how can a 30 amp rv plug fit into a 220 outlet? I have never seen one that fits.
Lots of ignorance on this issue. Take a look at your 220V electric dryer outlet if you don't know how a 30A RV plug can fit into a 220 outlet.
Do you really think I’m stupid enough to force a plug into a socket that doesn’t fit ? I’m not that ignorant. It was an honest mistake that the guy sold me the wrong breaker
Yup....lots of ignorance here.....one does not plug anything into a 'breaker'. That device simply installs in your house breaker box. The question is what did you actually plug your RV into.....my guess is an electric dryer 220v outlet, many of which will unfortunately mate with an RV 30A 120VAC plug. But glad your damage was held to a minimum. Could have been far more costly!
