The three most likely outlets you'll encounter at the campground power pedestal placed at each campsite is a 20 amp a 30 amp or a 50 amp with 30 and 50 amp being the most common. The most common inlet on a camper would be either a 30 or a 50 amp, depending on the size of the camper.

I've tried doing research on your camper, and have mostly come up empty handed. Most campers will have a 30 amp inlet that uses a twist lock socket. If you need a 3 prong, use # A10-G30253E or # A10-G30254E for a 4 prong. If you have a different connector on your camper, please let me know.
