I am planning to purchase & install a Progressive Industries hard wired EMS unit in my truck camper for those times when we stay at a RV CG/park and I am curious to know what others do if low voltage is detected by the unit upon arrival. Up to now I have used a portable surge protect unit that indicates power/no power, ground fault or miss wired pedestal and of course protects from a surge of power. The one time it detected no power, the park management allowed me to plug in to the adjacent site which had power. So to those who have one of these units and was faced with low voltage, did you make the CG management aware and if so how did they respond? What did you end up doing because as I understand correctly these EMS units shut power to the rig if low voltage is detected to prevent damage to the electrical components in the rig. It would seem to me if one is paying for a site, they should get full voltage, so I am wondering if a discount is typically offered, but then again I have heard low voltage is a common problem at CG's so maybe not? Thanks.
