I thought I did ;) - plug his trailer's 30 amp male plug into a 30 amp female > 15 amp male dogbone and he can power his trailer just fine off a standard 15 amp or 20 amp receptacle. Since a 30 amp feed is a single circuit that means if some 120 vac circuits in the trailer work while others don't then OBVIOUSLY the problem has to be downstream of the power source, the adapter he's using, and the main service cable that's feeding the trailer. First thing to look for are tripped / faulty breakers protecting the circuits that don't work - perhaps it's as simple as a loose wire connection, either at the converter or somewhere in one of the receptacles.
