    Good one.
    My Aquahot runs off my Inverter. When I turn on the diesel and electric together.
    My AC will shed when I use over the 50 amp limits. Especially when I use the induction cooktop
    The EMS will shed the AC and the electric Aquahot. First and second.

      Thank you for the compliment and view.
      The Newells have the AH 675D. As I said in the video, there are 3 levels of heating elements in this model. 110v (inverter), 240v, and Diesel. While it IS possible to run both electric and diesel elements together, it needs 240v for the high power electrical to function.
      And, yes, the Newells are set up to shunt, or block, certain A/C units whether by load manager, or manually, e. g. Opening the dryer vent disables 2 A/Cs. My philosophy, and practice, is to be proactive with load management rather than relying on “automatic” means which don’t always perform perfectly.

    Nice video. I have not run into park with that electrical configuration, but the doggone with dual 30 amp plugs could be useful to have around

      Yes, Ken…super handy to have; albeit dual 30’s are a rare find!

    Hey I noticed that in the description you wrote the EMS-PT50X but when you click on the link it actually takes you to the SSP-50X. Is there a difference? Which is better?
    Thank you!

    If we have 2 - 50 amp plug can we use that splitter to increase the power on our coach. Just asking, we are new at this and still learning. Thanks.

      @@Transforming2024 no no. This adaptor is ONLY to bring two 30A supplies into a 50A.
      What you’re asking is to have a two 50A into single 50A and that is not in the scope of this video and would cause serious issues which is why that type of Dogbone isn’t made.

      Thank You. I might have other questions. My wife and I are new at this and still learning and sometimes it’s a little overwhelming, but we are having fun.

    I think this dual 30 to 50 adapter only supplies 240vac IF the 2 30A outlets on the pedestal are connected to 2 different phases.

    • @RVSquaredSteve
      @RVSquaredSteve  8 днів тому +1

      You are absolutely correct, the 30A outlets need to be 180º out of phase. Using these adapters do pose risk if the campground pedestals are not wired correctly. This is why I insist on knowing my pedestal and using the EMS protection box at all times.

    I'm looking to pair to of the exact same generators to a different named parallel kit... its it possible? safe? will the different parallel kit work with the different named generators? AGAIN the generators ARE the exact same just the parallel kit is different... any information would be greatly appreciated THANKS!!🍻🍻🍻🍻

    • @RVSquaredSteve
      @RVSquaredSteve  11 місяців тому

      Thanks for watching and for your question. However, the topic is about using 2 30 amp outlets on a shoreline post for your RV to plug into. It has nothing to do with a generator(s) and, therefore, I don’t feel comfortable making any suggestions or assumptions. Thanks again.

    If you possess a 240 V system, how would you effectively utilize a 50 A plug?

    • @RVSquaredSteve
      @RVSquaredSteve  Рік тому +1

      I'm sorry, but I'm not sure I understand your question. A 50A outlet will have two 110v conductors, in which for example, can be combined into a 240v supply via the on-board autoformer. But, in terms of what the owner needs to do...there's nothing special.

  • @tombentley6373
    @tombentley6373 Рік тому +1

    Remember that hooking up to 2 30amp receptacles still only gives you 60amps total where a true 50 receptacle actually gives you 100amps. This will definitely work but you still need to watch your power consumption.

    • @RVSquaredSteve
      @RVSquaredSteve  Рік тому +2

      You are correct and I went over that, emphatically, at least several times in the video; hopefully you were able to extract that info.
