The way you are describing your setup, your outlet is most likely wired as a 30 amp 120/240 volt with a double pole breaker.
This is not the same as a 30 amp outlet wired 120 volt with a single pole breaker as RV's use.
Your setup is capable of a total of 60 amps, as opposed to 100 amps with a normal 50 amp 120/240 volt split phase outlet.
