I am Boondocking and my generator is not working. My neighbor offered to connect my electrical cord into his power system. My RV is a 30 amp and his is a 50 amp. Will this hurt either system? I am doing this to recharge my batteries.

Charging batteries should be fine. Just don't try to run your microwave or ac! It's nice to have such helpful neighbors.

And note that you would be connecting via an adapter to a 20 amp outlet. That's why you would not be able to run any large electrical loads. But it be great for charging batteries & having lights.
