[@RJ-cc1fz]

Yes the 50amp 3 prong inlet you are using will work. BUT, I’m fairly certain that inside that inlet it has ground and neutral bonded together. Which is only supposed to be done in a main panel. The trailers main panel is considered a subpanel. You would need a four prong 50 amp inlet to keep the neutral and ground separate. Or use a 30 amp 3 prong which keeps neutral and ground separate. Look at the back of a 30amp 3 prong 120v inlet and a 50amp 4 prong 240/120v inlet. You will see that neutral and ground are not bonded together on either of those that you could have used. The generator doesn’t bond together it’s neutral and ground. So I’d think it shouldn’t be done in the inlet either

Nice video. Understood how to calculate the total amps on your 120V panel. The question I have is, what happens when you need a piece of equipment that’s 240 at the same time with 120’s. Do you wire for 240, calculate total available amps based on 240 and as long as total amps doesn’t exceed the 240 calculations is Ok to mixed both 120 and 240 on the same panel? Or you need separate electrical sources for each? Thanks in advance. Hope you are doing well. Saludos !!!

I enjoy watching you, Frank you have taught me so much being a beginner of a food trailer so I have two generators and my power keeps triggering off for some reason. Can you please help me?

[@watchstore320]

Frank - I set up my electrical just like yours where power is going through one leg in the panel for 120 V. I need 50 amps to run everything in my trailer so 6,000 watts. Most generators allow you to switch between 120/240. If I buy a 6,000 watt generator that has the 120/240 option and leave it on the 120v setting, will I only get 3,000 watts of power or will I get the full 6,000 watts on the 120v setting?

[@fbaltierrez]

As per my understanding of Generators, I am not a Generator expert is you will get the max watts on which ever power style you use. Either the 120v or 240v

@@1234569518 He is running a generator that puts out 120v 4200W running. 4200W ÷ 120V = 35A. The max amps he can run is 35A. So if you were using this generator and consumed 2500W you would be using 20.83A.

Forgive me I'm not smart but why did you divide your generators number by 120?

120 is the voltage. omhs law says P = I*V So the generators number is in power (P). So you can calculate the current (amps) by P/V=I I is current/amps, and a generator usually runs a constant voltage, 120. So amps = Watts/120.
