Yup, awaywego brings up a good point, that most CG posts that have both 30 amp & 20 amp connectors available but that doesn't mean they can both be active at the same time. If this is the case trying to use both will cause the power pole breaker to reset. The two connectors are provided as a convenience for trailers that have a 30 amp cord or a 20 amp cord.

My impression is that with shore power, if there isn't a true 50 amp plug then I won't try. I don't like to mess with my power source since so many things can go wrong. Trying to draw more than intended just doesn't seem like a good idea. But I'm not a power expert and not very adventurous (and mostly too poor to experiment).
