Question:
Inverter generator NOT RV ready. If I use a 30 amp 20 amp converter plug to connect to an inverter generator, is my maximum power rating now reduced to 20 amps?

Helpful Expert Reply:
A 30 amp to 20 amp generator adapter like the Mighty Cord RV Power Adapter Y-Cord - 30 Amp to 20 Amp # A10-G3020Y will reduce the outlet end to 20 amps, though there are 30 amp to 30 amp plug adapters you can use, such as the Mighty Cord RV Power Cord Generator Adapter - 30 Amp Female to 30 Amp Twist Lock Male # A10-G3030AVP.
I have added a link below to a video review of this adapter for you, as well as a link to our entire selection of generator adapters for you to take a look at.
