Hello Orv,

If I'm getting Gamer1624's drift, do you think if the Pedestal with both a 50 & 30 plug might have less draw on the 50 side and have less of a chance to be drawn down, because less people might be using the 50 lines? The 50 to 30 dogbone adpts. are just deleting one of the hot leads right? If this were the case then the person with a 30 only Rig without an Autoformer would be wise to do this, right?

Does this make any sence?

Also wanted to let you know that I have followed your lead and installed the Autoformer and put the Surge Guard after it. All hard wired and out of sight. It came out great.
Azstar, glad to hear everything is working great for you. As for plugging into the 50 amp and dog boning it to the 30 amp cord, you still only have 30 amps. The pedestal still only has so much amperage coming to it. If you plug directly into the 50 amp and to your coach, you will have 50 amps, but otherwise, no.
