The 4 prong outlet is going to split the power to have 23 amps on each side. If your 50 amp RV has one air conditioner on each side of the panel and everything else is off it might work better than you were advised. I would try this first. Turn ALL breakers off except the two main and the two air conditioners.

Um - this really does not make sense, as I have never heard of a air conditioner that would use all 23 amps - or you might need to 'turn everything off' while running two air conditioners while each is drawing only about 15 amps each or a 1500 watt load X 2 on a 6,000+ watt generator.

Do you have the generator, or are you thinking about ordering one?

If you have the generator, plug into the 50 amp plug, and try it out. No reason that the generator could not power the 15 amp load on both phases, and run both air conditioners. Your 6,000+ watt generator will also run the charger, TV and most other 'light duty' loads that you add to it.

I probably would not be running the toaster oven, or other large load. The generator probably can put out 30 amps at 120 volts on 'either' leg of the 50 amp plug, but because the engine part is limited to only 12 HP and the total wattage is limited to only 6,000 (give or take) due to horsepower limits. But the internal windings should be rated at 30 amps each phase. . .

Good luck,

Fred.
