Hello all.

I have a question about 30A shore power. There are two inputs for this on my '86 PT40 Bird and I'm wondering:

1) Which one powers the battery charger ?
2) Can I plug into both at the same time if 220V is not available ?
3) If I do (2) should they be on different phases or is a single leg/phase okay ?
4) Is there a list of what is on which input ? Its not in my blue book.

I'm not trying to run AC or anything that requires big input ... but it would be nice to have the fridge and a few other things in spots where I can only get 110.

Not sure which one powers the chargers- you will just have to plug them in one by one and see for yourself. It should be pretty easy to hear the charger hum when it's energized. Normally, when 50A is not available, we plug both 30A cords in. One goes to the 30A outlet on the campground post and the other goes to a 20A plug on the post too (with a 30A to 15A adapter plug)
