Electrical question

Good afternoon. We had a 2021 East West Della Terra 230RB. It had a 30 Amp electrical system. Today we bought a 2022 East West Della Terra 250 BH which has a 50 Amp system. It comes with a basic power cord. Will my old extension cords work or do I buy new ones? TIA for all advice...Regards

30a and 50a are wired differently. You will need some adapters to use what you had.

This might help, and you can Google 30a vs 50a for more:

X2. Exactly what extension cords are you referring to? Are you talking about the shore power cord to the RV and an extension that connects to it?

Or are talking about extension cords that plug into a 120 volt outlet in/on the RV to connect an electric item... like for example an electric space heater or power drill or something?
