My 30 amp trailer wont handle all my appliances. Want to run a wire with male plug from the out door post to a receptacle inside the trailer.( to be installed) What type of wire should I use? Thanks

I did my 20A feed into the side of the trailer that would give me the shortest amount of wire to pull under the coroplast. There is 12ga wire from the inlet to the breaker, then the breaker feeds two outlets with 14ga wire since I'm not ever going to plug a 20A load into the outlets. They are 15A outlets so I couldn't do that anyway. The circuit breaker protects the wire from the pedestal to the breaker. These are only used to run space heaters in cold weather.
Are you the one that posted info. on that small breaker thingy in your photo? It's a marine item IIRC. Would you mind posting the manufacturer's brand and info.?
The little panel and the circuit breakers are made by Blue Sea. It's a double pole breaker because when I do marine wiring, I'm required to break both legs. Blue Sea also makes a panel for a single breaker. I don't remember the part numbers, but you can get it off of Blue Sea's website.
