Campground host checked the volatage and it is between 108 & 112, which should be OK. We talked to a RV repair tech and he thinks that the washer/dryer might be causing the triped breaker.

If I noticed voltage that low I'd run other appliances (fridge & water heater)on LP rather than electric, as was suggested by another respondent. I'd also run the A/C unit temporarily on "fan only" (compressor off) when using the microwave.
