Notwithstanding how 50 amp service can be described, I wonder if those three parks don't have TWO separate 50 amp circuits just for those big Prevost type RVs. From what I've seen on one of them, they could be wired for that. One had a generator the size of my truck engine (200kv I think). There's "Extreme RVs", the TV/cable show that sometimes has them, but even if I had the $$ I don't think I'd be in the market.
Hi

All the park would have to do to make that box a 100 amp service is put a 100 amp circuit breaker in place of the 50 amp circuit breaker provided the park wiring would support a 100 amp load. This is what a construction company would do when using that box for a temporary service. I am sure the receptacle would have to be changed to use 100 amps as well.

I would assume if the park has the new box the park would be wired for 100 amps to each box.
