Question:
Hello, I have a travel trailer with a 15 amp base. Is this the correct product to hook the RV up to 30 amp shore power at a campground/RV park? I imagine I would also need to purchase a 30 amp extension cord. Please advise if this is correct, or if there is a better product for my needs. Thank you!

Expert Reply:
The Power Grip RV Power Cord Adapter w/ Handles # CAM55185 you referenced is for adapter from a 50 amp trailer to 30 amp shore power. Assuming that your trailer has a power cord with a 15 amp male end you would be able to use a 15 amp extension cord like # CAM55142 and then a 15 amp female to 30 amp male adapter plug # A10-3015ARDVP to connect to the shore power pedestal.
