A question to you chaps familiar with the american split phase 120/240v system: The 50 amp socket are two phase 120v+neutral+120v (240v), right?
Does that mean that if using 2x30amp inlets, and you have 240v consumers on board, the two 30 amp sockets has to be the opposite phases?

.manitu

yes. but more and more marinas are starting to install GFI / RCD / ELCI 30a dock breakers. so some places you can no longer feed a 240v boat with dual 30s. and likly in the future no where.

most boats don't have a lot of 240v stuff on them. the 50a 240 is gernally just running more 120v stuff. giving 100a of 120v
