It seems confusing to me, because I have never had a 30 amp sub panel to work with. So, please bare with me, I will make it as short as possible. This spring a bought a used camper for 600 bucks. It was a real junker, but, I wanted that frame, it was worth it. The small panel box only had 5 places for breakers, It is old, put the electrician OKed' it. Because it is so hold, I can't get anymore breakers. It is wired funny as well. I pulled it all out for the rebuild. I should have taken a photo first. I need a 30 amp breaker to run the in-line water heater. I do have a 40 amp breaker that would work, maybe? I want to hook the cable line in to the 40 amp breaker, and use the 30 amp for hot water.
It is a 30 amp single pole breaker. Any ideas? The cable coming in has 2 different heads...does that say how much is coming in at the camp site? Should it be 50 amp coming in, if so, how do I change that? Any advice would be great. Thanks again guys...Donny ( I hope that's a clear message)
