Question:

i have a Honda Inverter generator that has an output of 20.8 amps at 120 volts only. no 240… will this adapter work for me? the female plug on my generator shows that it is a 30 amp plug. In other words, is it safe to use a 30 amp cord with a 20.8 amp generator? Can you guess that I am not an electrician

I reached out to my contacts at Valterra and they confirmed that the Mighty Cord Generator Adapter Plug for RV Power Cord # A10-G3030AVP will safely work with your 20.8 amps generator if the generator has a 3-connector twist lock receptacle. If it is a 4-connector receptacle, part # A10-G30430VP.
