Moving from 30 Amp to 50 amp in my new TT
I sold my old Travel Trailer with 30 amp system and I just discovered the new trailer I ordered has a 50 amp system. From what I've read I still can power the trailer as it sits next to my garage wit...

Nope. Not a one running 220 volts. Basic RV electricity - “Although a 50 amp service for a recreational vehicle, or RV, is connected to four wires and uses a four-prong plug, it is still a three pole service with only hot, neutral and ground connections. It is different from a conventional 120 volt service in that there are two 120 volt hot feeds, or legs, each at 50 amps.”
Interesting. I have 220v clothes washer AND dryer. I have a standard 50A service. Mine is wired with four wires. Mine uses ALL four wires.
Maybe I gotz a special one???
