What the reviewer checks on this drawing
The inspector checks the feeder size, ground-fault protection on all three receptacles, the 30A receptacle wired for 120V, the neutral isolated at the pedestal and the burial depth.

Notes on the sheet
- One RV at a time: the load is that of the largest receptacle, 12,000 VA for the 50A (the method of NEC 551.73(A)). 12,000 VA ÷ 240V = 50A, on the 60A feeder.
- The 30A TT-30R receptacle is 120V only: one pole and a neutral, never wired 240V. The 50A 14-50R is 120/240V, four-wire.
- GFCI protection on all three: outdoor receptacles at a dwelling, 125V through 250V (NEC 210.8(A), 2020 and later). The 2017 edition asked for it on the 20A only. The relief for RV site receptacles in NEC 551.71(F) is for RV parks, not for a house.
- Neutral isolated from the pedestal enclosure and equipment ground bonded. A grounding electrode at the pedestal where the AHJ treats a pedestal fed by a feeder as a separate structure (NEC 250.32).
- Burial depth per the adopted code for the wiring method used.
Diagram is schematic and not to scale. Field-verify existing equipment ratings. Ratings and conductor sizes shown are typical. Confirm against the adopted code, the equipment listing and a load calculation before installation.
