You can make a pigtail to hang out or a mountable male plug on the trailer. Then you can use a regular extension cord from the garage. Seems like the cheapest way to go to me.

Why would I put 2 male plugs???? :thinking: :thinking: :thinking: My intent is to make an extension type hook up that runs from my generator to 2 different boxes (one for the sleeper and one for the kitchen).

I already have my GFCI outlets, purchased when they were on sale. I will order my CS6000 converter/charger within the month, which has spaces for four AC breakers, negating the need for a separate AC breaker box. My cable from the shore power connection to my main breaker is a standard 30amp from a reputable RV Dealer. I've followed all of the advice given in this and other threads where wiring was discussed in what equipment is needed. All of the RV 30 amp cords I have seen so far are 10 gauge, as will be the wire from from my main breaker to my converter/circuit breakers.

Sometimes I pretend to be normal. But, that gets boring...so I go back to being me.

Hi Bruce

All I was trying to emphasise is the need for GFCI which did not seem to be mentioned in Crackers previous post or plans.


I mentioned the breakers because many people mistakenly believe a breaker (or fuse) will save their lives in the event of an accident, in reality (as you know) a breaker only protects wire/cable

Oops.

I addressed my email to George but I should have made it to Dale.
Sorry for any confusion,
