How can you tell short of checking the power outlet with a VOM? Will it show up using a EMS?
Will you have to rent a separate site to charge your EV? That could get expensive.
EMS is a multiple meaning Acronym
A progressive Dynamics EMS. I do not think so
An Intelletec EMS will show 30 amps on a cheater site.
Note that these are two ENTIRELY different devices which perform different jobs .
I used to have (Still do somewhere) a Neon tester that would do it.
but if I wished. . I could put together a simple indicator consisting of a Resistor (I'd have to work out the value) and a simple Neon Lamp (NE-2) you hook it to the two MAIN breakers or two branch breakers on different branches in the RV. if it's lights. Genuine 50 amp. if not cheater site.
Same test the Intelletec uses in fact.
