I am moving into a fifth wheel on my parents property (VERY rural area)

I need to know the correct gage and type of wire to perform this. I will be running about 130ft from pole on a 60A circuit. I need 30A into camper and will be running additional 25 feet into shed with a 6000BTU 120v window unit air conditioner, a fridge, lights, and my sewing machines.

I wish I could hire a professional, but no money, not to mention the county fathers in their infinite wisdom have decided that RV's can only remain in one location for two weeks - so if we don't get permits they won't know what is going on. This is my only option on a place to live so I need to get it right

Thanks for all your help!

Considering you need to split this off to two separate areas makes this task that much more complicated. Do you have someone who knows what they are doing to do this for you?

No Unfortunately just me, but I am a quick study and take direction really I well.

I am one of those bizarre people that can read a book and put something into practice the first time.

But my Dad will be there to make sure I don't kill myself. ;) He was an electrician for a good many years, but has been out of it for over thirty years. I can't get him to do any of the work because he is undergoig chemo for colon cancer right now and isn't physically capable.

I was thinking of running this to a separate box out by the RV, is this the correct procedure?
