Hi, I have the same question myself. I spoke to a electrician today he suggested I go with a new* 50 amp service in my camper do away with the old 30 Amp service all together off the new 50 amp service run 30 amp side of the breaker to my airconditioner or my stackable 220 washer/dryer combo and put couple other 15-20 amp breakers in my box for my lighting he suggested that way it also allows play for adding or modifying my breaker box as my needs change its always better to have more than not enough he quoted.... hope this helps a little
Install the fuse that is required for the circuit.
For that distance I would run AWG # 3 copper and install a sub-panel.
No, a 30 amp shore power plug is strictly 120volts. A 50 amp shore power plug is technically a 220v system, however the camper uses the two 120v wires in the cord separately. There are no 220v appliances in RV's today.
I would use AWG #4 for that run in alluminum. You will have a 3.8% voltage drop which is acceptible.

In the United States, there isn't a hard limit on how many 20 amp circuits that can be run on a 50 amp supply. This is because in most cases, especially in homes, we don't load most circuits with more than an amp or 2, even when they are protected by a 20 amp breaker. From a practical perspective you probably have a limited number of slots for breakers in your service or supply panel.
A 100 amp service will supply your electrical current needs UP TO 100 amps.When doing load calculations on a 100 amp panel it can only be loaded up to 80 amps.
AWG # 4 copper.
Three or four would be normal. The total current should not exceed the rating of the main panel, so depending on how intensively the different circuits are used, more could be installed.
One can find a motor home rental service in Australia on Maui Rentals and Apollo Camper. On Apollo Camper rates start at $50 per day. The website also has an offer to have up to 55 percent off the full price.
60 Hz in North America, 50 Hz in Europe.
simply four but also aplying diversity they may be increased depending on situation
