We are visiting family next month who are keen to have us park the coach on their property rather than a nearby campground, so keen in fact that they are installing a 50amp RV outlet. (I requested that they also consider adding a concrete pad and sewer connection but apparently the electrical hookup is as far as this family thing goes : ).
The fellow doing the install is an engineer and rewired much of his house plus a shop so, although he's not an electrician, he is far from an outright amateur.
The wiring of a 50 amp receptacle seems pretty straightforward with each leg coming from the respective house buss, then neutral to neutral and ground to ground, but I thought I'd ask the experts what to watch for. Also, I have this surge protector; do the three green lights guarantee proper wiring or, again, is there something I should watch for? Finally, is the info in the attachment accurate?
Thx
