Question:
My camper is 30A. I use an adapter to plug into a 50A site. If I plug in my 50S adapter to shore power, then my 30A surge protector, then my camper 30A power cord, will that work?

Helpful Expert Reply:
You have it exactly right.
Starting at the RV you will plug in your 30A power cord like # A10-3025ED90 which will connect to the 30A surge protector, such as the Camco # CAM55312 or the multilevel # CAM55301. Then from the surge protector you will use your adapter like # A10-5030FHVP to plug into the 50 amp shore power outlet.
