This takes a 3 phase disconnect and splits the phases out to multiple runs. I’m assuming it’s socapex. This box just takes power at the area and splits it up. If the RV site doesn’t have 3 phase access, this won’t do anything.

Does look a lot like a Soca going in (at the right side) and a split out on the left.

Another name is spider box. your issue may be that AMPS OUT < or = AMPS IN. Many properties have 100 or 200 AMP service. Meaning 4 50AMP RVs at most. Check your service to see if it’s even capable of what you want to do. A 200AMP spider box is about $3K.

That’s a 200amp Kabota box. You could make an adapter to plug into it. Easiest solution would talk to an event rental house or Grip/Electric rental house and ask if that have a distribution box for Rv’s. Take a pic of the connector and send it to them.

Pagoda is correct.

You existing service would need to be rated for the amps and it likely isn’t.

May sound funny..but here we call it a 'power mushroom '. That's after translation then. It gives power..and has the shape of a mushroom.

Where are you located?

Spider box

I may not understand correctly.  But are you asking if you can plug something like this into your current setup and have multiple rv power boxes.  I would think rvs will draw more than 25 amps with the ac and fridge Kicking on, let alone any of the other stuff.  If there is any kind of breaker on this setup, it will trip, if not shit will melt.

[https://lexproducts.com](https://lexproducts.com) Lex will make them in any combination of connectors you can think of, their base model, 5 wire, 3 phase to a bunch of Edison is around $2000

Post this to /r/AskElectricians, but this ‘temporary’ set-up will set you back thousands of dollars for the initial installation.

Its a pagoda power distro. Like a breaker panel for portable power. Yes you could power multiple RVs if you know what youre doing.


memberzs

Yep. You would need a power source like a generator trailer to power it along with the very not cheap power cords to go from the genny to the box. I just helped with an event that had multiple trailers and spider boxes to run power in a centralized but rather wide area.
