I am not aware of Newell making a unit with 2-50 amp power connectors. Some of the newer high-end parks are installing a few 100 amp power services. My Newell has a 60 main breaker and I recall that by 1995, they had 70 amp main breakers. IF the power cord were sized to carry 70 amps per leg and there were a 100 amp breaker at the pedestal, you would have up to 140 amps available (theoretically). Newell used the larger main breaker to take advantage of the 17.5 kw and 20 kw gensets.

La Hacienda RV Resort, the site of the first Newell mini-rally, is installing 100 amp circuits in a few sites.
