Pulling more than 50 amps ?
Our park electrician says that some of the big rigs with 3 ACs and electric everything can sometimes draw more than 50A from a 50A pedestal. Truth or BS?

I read this again. It is worded POORLY. The answer is, YES, THEY CAN DRAW MORE THAN 50 AMPS. But, the 50 amp pedestal handles a TOTAL of 100 amps. Doug
Which wire has the 100 amps on it Doug?
It is 50 amps on L1 and 50 amps on L2. Voila, 100 amps used in the RV. Sheesh, I thought you, of all people, knew this wa8yxm.
