Electrical Extension Cords
I am a new travel trailer owner with no previous experience. I am looking for advice on what gauge extension cords I should purchase for electrical hook ups?

If you are in any Ontario Provincial Parks carry at least one 25 foot 30 amp cord., and a 10 gauge 15 amp extension cord at least 50 feet long. The 15 amp cord won't allow you to use the air conditioner, but it will be good to power everything else. After a few trips you will know what you need.
We went to MacGregor Point PP several years ago. Had the trailer cord fully extended, the 25 foot 30 A cord attached and the a 100Foot 15 amp cord with adapter to the 30 Amp cord, and just barely made it to the power post. Now we carry far better and longer cords. At Rondeau last fall I needed the full cord out of the camper and a 25 foot extension.
Happy camping.
