Connecting 50 Amp RV Power to 30 Amp Generator
Question:
Just want to clarify. Can this be used to connect a 30A generator to a 50A inlet box? I realize it will only provide 30A.

We do have the cords you need but the power cord # A10-3050EHD can't be used with a generator.
Instead you want to use the generator adapter, part # A10-G30350VP, with an extension cord, part # A10-G30253E. If you need a 4-prong you want # A10-G30450VP with # A10-G30254E.
