Hi,
Thanks for posting the information gathered from your test.
It is normal for a 50 amp breaker to NOT open immediately when the rating is exceeded. My wiring is rated for 60 amps, so when I replaced the fuses with breakers I used 50 amp ones.
Did you happen to measure the voltage at the alternator and voltage at the house batteries just after beginning the testing?
I'd love to see the every twenty minutes data in a table.
I will put something together later or tomorrow.
I think volts at alt and battery would be similar to what I was reading at the campers batterys as 6 gauge wire would have no loss @ 12 ft of cable IMO..
