50 amp MH, plugged into 30 amp, ok to run 2 ac units??

Something new for me. My motorhome has 50 amp service, however I'm currently plugged into a 30 amp outlet. Both my air conditioners are running. Is this ok to run both on 30 amps? Thank You Bria...

If you are plugged into a 30 amp receptacle, protected by a 30 amp breaker and you monitor your voltage, you should be good to go until the breaker trips.

It's not simply a breaker/current issue. What is the voltage? operating at low voltage will damage the A/C unit.
He will need to pay attention to the voltage. Both units will work....
until they don't!


If you're going to quote me, read my post carefully and completely.
I did note voltage needs to be monitored.
