Safe shore Power
I bought one of the little yellow power post testers that shows if it's safe to use. My question is, if I plug into the 120 plug and the lights show OK, does that mean the 30 amp and 50 amp. are safe...

While I agree wholeheartedly with the posts recommending a full time protection device, the OP asked about checking the power before plugging in. The devices mentioned will protect from many power problems but a suspect outlet should be tested before even plugging in your protection device.
You're absolutely right. My PI unit does check the pedestal before supplying power to the RV. If there's a problem, it will display the appropriate error code so I can tell the office what's wrong. I consider ANY outlet suspect until I've tested it.
right, if you buy a good multifunction surge protector it will test the circuit before passing voltage to your RV. the $99 specials won't.
