I want to run a 80FT 220 cord to a motor home and make a 110 receptacle and 30amp rv receptacle . Can I do this? I can't get any closer to the power and need 30amps for the ac and would like a separate plug for a out door fridge . This cord is heavy duty ? IT IS GETTING HOT sure would BE COOL TO GET SOME HELP !

#6 or #8 would make your AC Happy. Are you using #10 now?
If the wire gets hot at the ends, not the middle, a loose connection may be to blame.

Yep, you probably could. You'd need probably need 4 conductor SOW cord. Portable cord - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

First figure out what they will allow you in terms of a connection. If they only allow you to plug into a 30 AMP 4-wire 240 (There is no 220) then that's all you will get.

You would have to hook it up similarly to temporary power. With an outdoor breaker box set up as a sub-panel and all flexible cord exiting from the bottom.

There might be better ways. I'd look at both RV stuff and boat stuff.
Looks like 30 A and 50 A RV stuff is common.

It looks like you want to be connected to a 50 A RV outlet, correct? But you only have a 30 A RV inlet to your RV? True?

I Have The Cord Already . It Has 240 Mail And Female Ends.it Probably #6 Or #8. How Do I Tell? It 5/8 Thich With Coating . My Closest Power Sourse Should Have At Least 30 Amps, Hoping Its 50 Amp. How Can I Tell ? Can I Cut The Female End And Have A Box With A 30 Amp 120 Rv Plug And A 120 Plug On A Seprat 20 Amp Braker . The Main Box Is Very Far. Thanks
P.s Come Winter Can I Run The Cord Through A Pipe And Bury It?

You can't exceed the rating of the wire, which is likely the rating of the plug. Each plug configuration has a rating. I'll come back to that one.

The cord should have the wire size on it.

I think you have a 30 AMP RV plug, so therefore it's probably rated at 30 A and should be connected to a 30 A breaker at the other end.

That being said, you could get a NEMA-4 NEMA 4 and Other NEMA Ratings enclosure and put an RV connector on it such that your cord mates to it. Then add a cord to plug into your RV. You can also get an outdoor outlet which comes with a cover so that cords can stay plugged into it. You would just have to fuse/breaker this inside the NEMA-4 box at 20 Amps. GFCI required since it is being used outside.

Hey, it's 3AM in the morning when I got this PM. I'm sleeping.

By Code, the cord to a mobile home cannot be greater than 36.5 feet nor less than 21 feet. 550.10(D).

550.10(A) describes the feeder as, "Not more than one listed 50 Amp power supply cord with an integrally or securely attached plug cap or a permanently installed feeder. Sorry, I did not find any specification for an "RV" power cable.

Thank you TK for making me look that up once before.
