30amps + 20amps = Disaster or Solution?
So what am I getting when I wheel up to a post with a 30amp and a 20 amp circuit and plug my "Y" shaped gizmo in? One part of the "Y" is 30 amp so I naturally plug it into the 30 amp circuit and then I plug in the other side of the "Y" which is a 20 amp plug. The bottom of this "Y" connector thingy terminates in a 50 amp plug into which I put the monster cable from the trailer. Am I getting 50 amps or something else or am I risking a massive catastrophe with fireworks? I did buy this thing at an RV dealer so assumed (silly me?) that it was safe to use.
