Power cord question

[Defyant]

Hello all,

My new-to-me 2000 Fleetwood Discovery 37v has several modifications from the previous owner. I suspect the 30amp power cord is another mod.

My question is, shouldnt this RV have a 50amp power cord? I am familiar with this coaches "power shed" option allowing me to run 30 amp hook ups.

Thanks

Here is a link to the sales brosure for your coach and it states that it has 30 amp service. http://fleetwoodrv.com/frvlibrary/do.../2000_di_f.pdf

Is this a detachable cord? (they have a marinco outlet on the end that plugs into a matching inlet on the motor home?

IF so look at the end.. (Or look into the inlet)

3 curved slots (blades) one with a "notch" like device (KEY) and a metal spot on the side of the outlet. matching a ball like projection on the collar of the inlet?

That is a 50 amp hookup.

They sell 30 amp cords that fit it though.. I have one.. Use it on 30 amp sites.

I will link to the outlet or inlet

If you have this type of hookup.. .. Well The link

And they also have a 30 amp cord that fits it...but you know that already.

It came as a 30 Amp system

Thanks for the replies.

The 30amp cord is wired in behind the panel near the black tank. I didn't dig further.

I was confused because I swear I read in the owners manual that the coach had a 50amp system, but can run limited appliances on 30amp. I'll check again.
