Newbie! 30 amp to 20 amp converter

HI folks,

I'm brand spanking new to RVing.

The trailer I am attempting to make "usable" is a 1988 Companion Classic. Needs work.

My question: when using a 30 amp to 20 amp plug converter does it follow that a portion of the original 220 circuits will not work. Or does the adapter send current to both sides of the 220. I do not have the option of a 30 amp 220 connection. Only 20 amp 110. Some circuits are not working and I want to determine if this is normal or a malfunctioning adapter.

Thanks!!!!!

There are no 240v circuits in your trailer unless a previous owner added them, which is highly unlikely. Everything is 120v AC, or 12v DC.

If some circuits are not working it has nothing to do with the adaptor. You have a problem either in the trailer's AC power panel or somewhere in a circuit downstream of the branch circuit breakers.
