Yes 30 amp 240v breakers are in virtually every home..
But it's a 2 pole gang operated breaker (120v+120v = 240v), not single pole 240V breaker. Only other countries have 240v on one breaker.
But, do I understand...both the neu. (or gnd.) and hot legs were energized at the pedestal plug...he tied 2 hot phases into the power chord connection lugs instead of the hot and neu.? We're talking 30a or 50a RV service?
You said a mouthful there. :h It is totally over my head how an "electrician" could hook up two hot legs to a 110 outlet. So did he piggy back the two hots onto the one hot on the 30amp 110 circuit breaker?
