Expert Reply:
You can use an adapter such as the Mighty Cord RV Power Cord Adapter Plug for 50 Amp Female to 30 Amp Male, # A10-3050AVP to use a 50 Amp surge protector with a 30 Amp power pedestal, but you cannot use a 50 Amp power pedestal to a 30 Amp service RV or surge protector.
Any surge protector should be matched to the service of the RV. Such as the 30 Amp Power Watchdog Surge Protector, # HU97FR or the 50 Amp version of, # HU47FR.
