I came across maybe obstinate in my last post, maybe waking up too early on the wrong side of the bed, because, actually, when I first started I had little knowledge of electrical and may have assumed some of the same 'things', when it comes to the difference between a 30amp rv outlet and a 50amp one.

Lessons learned. Yes, some big rigs have not only 240v appliances, but 240v output from their onboard generators. Many of the touring Prevosts hardly EVER plug in, but run their generators almost 24/7 since they are not in 'campgrounds' or 'rv parks'. If you take a tour bus with 12 beds and 6 air conditioners on the roof, you start to realize the power needs of these big rigs. Their generators can provide much more power than the typical 50amp rv outlet, for sure.
