This weekend when it was hot as blazes in virginia, we were in a campsite and I had the old Suncruiser plugged into the campsite shore power. I had both air conditioners turned to auto, but only teh front unit would run. The back bedroom unit relay would click if I changed the thermostat, but it wouldn't come on. If I turned on teh geerator I could run both units, no problem. So, obviously it was a power thing.
A friend I was with told me I could get a pig tail to put on my shore power that wouls allow me to connect to teh 50amp service as opposed the to the 30amp service. I was concerned that I may cause real harm to the electrical system in my coach if I did this.
Anyone familiar to this? I don't believe my genset is a 50amp. It says 40amp on teh tag on it. But it's confusing for me.
So was there something wrong with the power feed this weekend making the 2nd A/C unit not run or do I need more than 30amps juice to run both units?
Thanks!
Matt.
