First RV Park wiring

[Scooters32]

I’m going to be wiring up RV pedestals, each pedestal has either a 50 amp, or 30 amp and a 120/115 volt receptical . My question is I have a 200 amp service panel to feed each pedestal , how many pedestals can I safely feed from that 200 amp panel ? Can I have two double throw breakers feeding two pedestals, for a total of four pedestals being feed with 240 volts per. Pedestal ?

"Double throw" breakers? Never seen one!
You'll need to follow the load calculation info in 551 as mentioned.

I’m thinking about a different approach , would it be ok to run a 4 conductor #4 wire , from the 200 amp service panel, to the first pedestal and then daisy chain to the next 5 for a total of 6 pedestals ? Would that be a better approach ?

No, you will have to follow article 551 as stated.

What you propose would be non-Code compliant and potentially dangerous.
You need to review Art 551 and Art 240.
I'm concerned that any input to your thread will simply promote a potentially dangerous install and suggest you review the job with an electrician experienced with RV sites.
For that reason, I am closing the thread
