This sort of problem requires very exacting measurements with power loads on & off and on each "leg" of the 50A source. Also requires detailed info about what appliances are on each leg of the 50A. Also, be aware that it may behave differently if the external power source if standard 50A/240v vs 30A/120v with an adapter.
You don't need more than one Voltmeter, but you do have to be meticulous in measuring on each leg for each load condition and noting what else is running in each case. For example, you said it reads 114v on each leg with the microwave running, but what else was on and on which leg? Probably the converter, maybe the fridge, etc. Any other load potentially affects what you see on the voltmeter.
The most common cause for this sort of weird problem is a faulty neutral on a 50A power source, but verifying that and finding it can be challenging.
