Can Progressive Dynamics 60 Amp Control Center Be Used with 30 Amp Receptacle?
Question:
I currently have a 30 Amp inlet on my camper, are there any options to use the current inlet with this unit until I can upgrade the inlet to 50 Amp?

Expert Reply:
The amp rating of the control center units like the Progressive Dynamics 60 Amp # PD4560K18LS8 have more to do with their max electrical rating and less to do with what type of receptacle they are compatible with.
So, long story short is that you can use this larger unit until you upgrade your receptacle to 50 Amps. Please be mindful that you need to be checking the rest of your electric system as well since upgrading certain parts can allow more power through so you want to make sure you're protected as you go through each upgrade. Starting with the control center is a good idea since it's where your fuses and breakers live.
