T&T: 30 amp service vs. 50 amp service

[Pascal Gademer]

i was replying to
"after having used a 50A cable for awhile, I much
prefer a splitter and two thirties tied into a 50 amp service.That 50 amp
cord is like an python, and expensive !"

well,  i've you're using a splitter to connect a pair of 30amp cable to 
50amp service on the the dock, you have :

-one 50 amp plug to the shore power pedestal
-two 30 amps female on the other side of the Y
-two 30amps male on you power cords.

total five vs just one using a 50-120/240 cable.
