A house dryer is wired at 50 amps at 240 vac however nothing in a motorhome is 240vac and therefore it is wired differently. Each hot of the 50 amp service is on a seperate bar in the breaker box. It provides two lines of 50 amps at 120vac. So 50 amps on line 1 and 50 amps on line 2 equals 100 amps. At the sametime one must never plug into a house 240 line unless it is set up spacifically for an RV. If one would plug a 50amp motorhome in a 50amp dryer outlet one would effectively let all the smoke out of the electronics. And as we all should know the smoke must stay in the electronics in order for them to keep working.
