Question:
Hi, With the A10-3050FBK one can power a Hot/Hot/Neutral/GND of the RVs 50A/240V system partially from a Hot/Neutral/GND 120V/30A source. Will the one Male Hot power only one of the two Hots on the RV? Or, with no actual 240V loads, will it split and power both RV Hots? Thanks.

When using the Mighty Cord RV Power Cord Adapter # A10-3050FBK to hook your 50 amp service camper up to 30 amp shore power you're getting power to both leg of the 50 amp plug legs.
If you took a multimeter, like # PT89ZR, and tested the legs both would read 120v. Even though there are two legs you'll still only be getting 30 amp service in total.
