Plugged in and working
Here it is, plugged in to 2, 30 amp receptacles, and feeding each bus bar of my 50 amp main with 30 amps of power. My Energy Management System sees this setup as 50 amp service because it sees 240 volts when measured between the 2 hot legs, and that's OK, because it's really rare for any rig to use close to 7,200 watts of power. The system is protected by the breakers on the RV Park pedestal. Even though only one would "pop" in case of an overload, both would in case of a dead short between the 2 hot legs.

Note, after I left Nat-Soo-Pah, I redid the setup so that it hangs straight. I know, not that important, but looks mean something to me. :-)
