Typically RV 50A panels are NOT every other breaker is on one leg, then the other on the other leg. Usually one leg is one way from the main and the other is the other way from the main (either up and down or horizontally). These panels are two legs of 110 volt not 240 volt! Sounds confusing, but at this time RV's are 110 volt units. Having both legs just gives additional power! 30A units are just 30A ---- 50A units are two legs of 50A
Maybe so but I have checked several camp grounds and they all measure 240 volts across the two hot legs. The two legs are not in phase if they were you would measure 0 volts across the two hot legs.
