wayne77590 Report post Posted June 15, 2023 (edited) I'm not in Cincinnati but I strongly suggest you get an electrician that knows how to wire a 50amp service for an RV. It is NOT a washer/dryer hook up of 240 volts. Although you can get 240v you don't want 240 on a single leg. Each leg will have 120v, normaly the red and black wire. White is Neutral (to ground) and Green is Ground. There are a lot of articles on-line. I had mine done by an licensed electrician and then checked his work at the pedestal(box on outside of garage). You also want a good gauge wire like 8awg or even 4awg. I have 8 here and it runs fine. Your breaker should be appropriate to run two single 120v lines.
