I installed the same box in my pole barn using left over 8/3. You'll enjoy having full power capacity.

Great project to do, you'll like being able to plug into a dedicated 30 amp outlet. Lowe's sells a box WITH the 30 amp breaker already installed in the box for something like $32. It makes it really nice to turn off breaker when plugging in or unplugging. Good job, you'll like it.

We installed one, also..


That way we can keep the RV powered, batteries charged and a certain level of temperature control in the RV as she sits.


Also makes it easier to work (play) with modifications.

I installed one with the breaker built in. No running to the basement to shut it off before plugging / unplugging.
