Could Power Grip RV Power Maximizer Plug into a 15 amp and a 20 amp Power Source

Updated 07/05/2018 | Published 07/03/2018

Question:

Can the Power Maximizer be connected to 2 different AC circuits at home? When loading my RV 50 ampbefore a trip and the main AC unit 15000 BTU is on, the garage breaker 15 amps trips every now and then. I have access to a different 20 amp AC near by. I was wondering if I can connect the 30 amp side with an adapter to the 20 amp circuit and the other side to the 15 amp one.

It would be possible to plug the male ends of the Power Grip RV Power Maximizer # CAM55025 to both power sources that you mentioned as long as the connectors match. On the male side of the adapter is a 15 amp plug and a 30 amp style plug. Normally a 20 amp outlet has a slightly different plug than a 15 amp. You'd have to source an adapter for that though since we don't carry one currently.
