dual cords

my 345 'Silver Bullet' is an oven with the one a/c. I found the auto-change over box relay and breaker box and wired into the relay output to the rear air with a double-pole double throw 30A switch molded under the dinette set. Ran 10 ga wire back to the back, installed another breaker box, then put a 30 amp pigtail in the cord/hose reel compartment. If the site has 2- 30 amp plugs, or a 50 amp plug, or 1- 30 amp and 1- 20 (duplex) amp, I plug both cords in, flip the switch and run both a/c.
This only effects the rear a/c. New switch UP, normal operation with power selector switch. New switch DOWN, rear a/c works off added power cord.
A lot of old parks have a 30 and 15 amp but have a 30 amp main. It don't work in them. I've installed a new Carrier a/c this last year, but haven't tested it on any old park electric setup.
