As I read about the surge protection, I think I will buy this one

as it can be used to protect my coach's built in surge protector for 50, 30 & 20 amp services. I have power management system inside that tells me how many amps I am drawing at any moment in time. If I have 20 amps service it will know and help to manage what I can use as to not trip breakers |
Don't waist you money on that!. It is just a surge protector. Chances are your grand kids will have grand lids before you will get a spike big enough to make it work within a campground..
That being said I have a surge protector on my house since 1990. 2 lights were lit when I installed it and 2 lights are lit today.
If you have an extra $99 laying around but understand that it will protect for VERY high spike voltage just one time and it will become junk. It is a one hit wonder.
EMS will stop flow of voltage that is over 132 volts and not turn it back on until it goes below. it will also stop electric flow below 108 volts and no let it flow until it is higher. Surge protector can do none of that. Purge protector can show you bad wiring but it can not do anything about it.

The problem with campgrounds is LOW VOLTAGE and miss wired peds. What you pictured is just a surge protector and nothing more. What you need to buy is and EMS $250-$300
