Hi. I have a 2010 Cyclone 3010 that is giving me trouble when I try to pug it into a 50amp 220vac recepticle. I have used it at various campsites as 50 amp and with the use of different adapters as 30 or at home with cheater cords plugged into a 110 outlet.
I decided to use a proper 50amp service at home and wired one up. Its a 4wire 50 amp with 220 across the two hot legs. It is not tied to the same feed leg as some seem to feel is RV correct. It is a properly installed 220v 50amp 4pin recepticle that matches the service plug from the trailer.
Trailer works fine with a cheater cord that ties both sides of the ac feed in the trailer to the same feed leg but will trip the 60amp feed breaker when used with trailer 50 amp cord. I found the schematic for the power converter [Progressive Dynamics PD5500 panel] and its showing two separate legs capable of using 220 feed. I haven't found and checked the transfer switch yet but suspect it ties both sides together although I don't know why.
Any suggestions? Thanks Pat
