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?

100 amps available....50 amps per leg x 2 legs...so answer is yes
Agreed! I routinely use in the 60+ amp range when camping during the winter and using the electric fireplace and 3 other portable electric heaters for warmth plus the electric water heater. The 3 other heaters are strategically plugged in such that neither 50 amp leg is maxed out. I've been doing this for several winters now.
