RE: Commercial/Shore Power Connection
Be very careful. DO NOT HOOK YOU BUS TO 240 VAC. The results will be very expensive to fix.
The three prong plug is 120vac 30 amps and needs to be on a 30 amp 120 vac breaker.
The four prong plug is two legs 120vac 50 amps and need to be on a 50 amp 120 vac breaker. the four prong plug shares the ground and neutral with outside blade of the plug, creating two legs of 120 vac 50 amps 120 vac.

Not all electricians understand how RV's are wired. Please find one who is familiar with RV's.

I hope someone else will help me out with the technical part.
