Ok I will keep this thread going since it seems there are some very helpful answers to my original question. Keep in mind I am a "newbie" to the world of rv-ing (and honestly did not expect all of the assistance this thread has generated-so THANKS!!!)
This morning I wired in a 50 amp box (
http://www.homedepot.com/p/Eaton-50-Amp-1-Space-1-Circuit-Temporary-RV-Power-Outlet-Box-CHU1S/100565603) using the existing wiring that was used for the hot tub I used to own and used a "dog bone" (
http://www.amazon.com/Camco-55185-PowerGrip-Dogbone-Electrical/dp/B000BUQOGI) to connect to the 30 amp connector in my trailer. No dice.
I am getting power to the box and power at the end of the cord but when I connect everything to my trailer and then plug it in to the box I get no power to the trailer.
I checked all the fuses and didn't see anything so I connected the trailers battery just to see if anything was working and got overhead lights.
Is there a way that the trailer will not work with a 30 amp to 50 amp conversion?
Anything else I should be looking at?
