Expert Reply:
Surge protectors are designed to protect the RV's circuits and accessories so even if you were using a 30 amp service your RV would be safe up to 50 amps so you'd want to use a 50 amp surge protector like the # CAM55306 which automatically disconnects when there's a dangerous voltage level and reconnects when voltage stabilizes.
