I use our long 30A cord. It has the standard 50A connector on RV end and standard 30 male on the other. I use the little 30 to 15 adapter. It worked ok at home before we had the 50 A installed, and on the road. We could run lights and other light loads, no AC, microwave, etc. Our RV draws ~ 2-2.5A when sitting idle [nothing on except the 'hidden' items]. I also use a baggie over joints between any connection of any cables/cable adapters to help prevent moisture, condensate or rain, from shorting the pins/sockets. Learned the hard way.
