Another Newbie Question:

In that my new rig has only one air conditioner I intended to install a standard 30 amp RV outlet on the side of my house. However, the GMC's shore power electric setup is a little different than what I am accustomed to. On my previous 50 amp rigs the standard plug consisted of two 120 vac hots, a neutral and a ground. Each hot could supply 50 amps for a total of 100 amps available. A voltmeter across those hots would show 240 volts. Could someone give me a quick brief on the GMC's shore power setup?

Actually, I don't need any more than a 30 amp supply but if I were to add a second air conditioner, for example, would the existing stock wiring support that? Thanks.
