Note:
I used 10/2 wire. Look at the supporting video linked that has a better shot of that.
As far as the conduit, I suggest you look into your codes as this passed inspection by the county of Shasta, CA. Sheath needs to be left on. If you strip the sheathing, it’s then illegal. (Per building inspector)
Go to your

In this video I’ll show how I install a 30 amp power outlet on my house for convenient shore power to the truck camper.
Everything was done for less than $60. Only took an hour or so to do the install. We have a truck camper with 30 amp Service and from time to time we have friends stay here with their vans or trailers.
