    RV hook up to a MEP-803a

    I am pretty sure your right, the champion generator I'm using now states its 120/240, I believe that's for the surge of the ac's. The plug being four pronged supports the two leg 120v. So am I correct in using the 120/240 single phase selector setting, with the mep-803A.? That wiring is to...

    RV hook up to a MEP-803a

    Ok , need a couple pointers, on setting the selector switch inside control panel is it 120/240 single phase, or just the 120v single phase. For my 50 amp.

    RV hook up to a MEP-803a

    I will check the grounding, I actually have a grounding lug cable to connect to a rod in the ground.

    RV hook up to a MEP-803a

    Ok perfect so in wiring additional outlets would is just be one pole and the ground. Two wires right? That's a standard 120 outlet I think.

    RV hook up to a MEP-803a

    I like that idea, when I'm ready for that hook up I'll ring back, I might also plug in a bank of 120 plugs to it, or I suppose I can plug in a power strip to the two on the front right? Or should I wire the poles directly with a box of outlets?

    RV hook up to a MEP-803a

    I also wanted to add, I did not wire in a breaker, I felt the RV has it s own breaker box, and the generator has its internal fuses, I felt it was too redundant, please let me know.

    RV hook up to a MEP-803a

    Here's the deal, I have a Mep-803a I would like to hook up to my 40 foot RV, its a 50 amp plug, what's the best way to do this? I'm looking for a black box I can mount on the trailer wired to the generator, then use my RV plug into a 50amp socket, along with maybe an eight pack of 120 outlets...
