    need recommendation for a surge protection

    I'm in the process of ordering a Reflection 303 and need a recommendation for a built in surge protector. I really don't want to buy a 50 amp portable surge protector. I already have a new 30 amp but also don't want to have to carry 2 of them around for the occasion when I only have 30A available

    Thanks

    Progressive Industries 50 amp hard-wired. It will protect you (as it did me a few weeks ago) even when you use a 30-amp dogbone adapter at the pedestal adapter.

    Thanks for the replies guys, that is what I was looking for. I went and looked at the progressive Industries and they look pretty good with good protection.

    Does it make sense to buy a 50 amp surge when you only have 1 ac and do not plan on adding a 2nd ac ?

    If your RV is a 50 amp RV, you should install a 50 amp EMS (they are MUCH more than "surge protectors").
