What Generator Will Power a 50 Amp RV

When you’re looking to go off-grid for a while, one of the first choices is usually by RV. Most times, you can power RVs with simple campground power pedestals. But, sometimes they might not work, or you just go completely off-grid and need an alternative power source. That’s where the portable generator comes in.

What should I look for when getting a generator for a 50 Amp RV? What wattage is best? Which outlets are the best? Which outlets are the easiest to come by? Will I need an adapter for my 50A RV?

For this example, we will use the generator we have on hand. As you can see, its running wattage rate is 3800 watts. That is the consistent wattage that the generator can provide during use depending on the load.

With this generator, you can easily power a 30A RV since they are only rated for up to 3750W. But, it may not be the best for a 50A RV. 50A RVs can normally use up to 12,500W for the appliances within. That is a huge difference compared to a 30A RV. If you are stuck using a generator like this, you will have to do some math and figure out which appliances you can run when. You cannot power every appliance at once in a 50A RV with this small of a generator.
