RV Receptacle

[augie47]

We have a variance in enforcement in our areas as to the requirement for a 120v 15 or 20 amp receptacle on a RV site (individual, not a "park"
555.81 does not appear to require the 120 v 15/20 amp if a 30 amp or 50 amp is present.
Does your jurisdiction require the 15-20 amp receptacle ??

I am not sure if it's code but I have always seen them with a 15a next to the 30a/50a. Not sure why it would be required but it's nice if you can only get an rv/trailer spot as a tent camper.

I see 551.71(A) as requiring a 20 amp, 125 volt receptacle at each site no matter what other receptacles are provided.

another point of view:
551.71(A) is a subsection of Part VI "RV Parks" and 551,2 defines an RV Park as ."......two or more RVs......." so an individual site for one RV would not be covered by 551.71.

The OP says it's not in an RV park.

I usually add one unless the RV box has one included. It's a good trade-off for not having to GFCI protect the RV box.

It would be nice for a full timer if they had freezing temperatures. They could plug in the heat tape for the water line.
