Hi,
Get a clamp on multimeter. Have the electrician wire a 50 amp plug that has two 20 amp outlets or 30 amp outlets. Plug in two 1500 watt heaters--one on each plug. Measure the voltage. Then use the clamp on to check the amperage. The amperage should be approximately the same on each "leg", and there should be little voltage drop.
50 amp to twin 30 amp adapterkaraokegal wrote:
i own an RV storage facility and have 50 amp plugs onsite for my customers. The plugs and wiring was done by a licenced electrician. I have one customer who complained that even though the plug is working he is not getting 50 amps because he can not run his AC nor his refrig. I moved the customer and he had same issue at another plug then the 3rd plug worked. I called the electrician out and he said everything was fine. How do I prove to this customer that the plug is putting out 50 amps? Also what could be the cause in the rv that would cause it to work sometimes and not all the time.
