you want a box to plug the camper to your house,if so all you need to do is put a 50 amp breaker in your house breaker box,then run a 50amp wire to where ever you want the plug,then wire on plug that matches camper cord.

He is a certified electrician. He does it for a living. It is just that we were going by what the people at camping world told us to do. He has already said it doesn't make a lick of sense what they told us. Thats why I got on here and ask, most of you guys are just good ole people with a lot of common sense.

old man thank you I thought I was going crazy there for a minute. I helped my dad with a trailer but that was many years ago. What you said made sense.


A certified electrician makes so much sense as a fire could be so much more costly.

A 50 amp rv service is 220 volts. The highest amp service for 110 volt is 30 amps. Lowes sells the parts and can explain the difference. It sounds like you should have an expert do the work.

I know this is going to sound really stupid, but we have one here now. Its not that he doesn't know what he is doing but he doesnt know much about camper wiring. We dont have the camper here yet, but we know we need a 50 amp hookup. Our old camper only took a 30 amp. We were trying to have the wiring ready when we bring the camper home tomorrow. I guess we are putting the camper before the horse.
