So # 10 wire and a 30 amp breaker and plug canโt be run at 30 amps continuous

Two ac โs should be around 30 amps or do they pull more than that.

Just sold my 30Amp trailer and buying a new 50Amp trailer that has 2 AC's. When visiting my Father he has a 30A plug. Can I still plug in my old 30A surge/voltage protector, use a 30 to 50 adaptor, and still have power but use only one AC?
