When parked at home we have always just run a regular extension cord from the house (15Amp) to the trailer. Probably about 50-60'. Have recently read where this might cause problems due to the long run of a small gauge extension cord. Now I am putting an adapter on the house receptacle directly on to our 30amp RV extension cord and then put a pigtail on the 50Amp cord to the receptacle on the trailer. Still only starting out with 15amps but with the heavier gauge extension cords I shouldn't be losing amperage. We only use this set up to keep the battery charged and run the fridge to cool it before trips.
