On our old 30amp gasser, I split the circuit to the rear ac with a 15amp plug and outlet, that was fed from the genset's 20amp breaker. This allowed for plugging into a separate outlet on the shore pedestal for the rear ac and leaving 30amp for the rest of the coach.
yes! this is a situation that the "Dual Power Adapter" worked perfect for!
That is what we have in our 30 amp unit. There is an outlet in the rear that has a 20amp breaker/switch and a pigtail that stays plugged in while driving, running the generator, or plugged into 30 amp only. But unplugging the pigtail allows a 2nd shore cord to be plugged in (most RV pedestals have more than just 1 30 amp) and this allows one a/c to run on that 2nd shore cord. Then you have a full 30 amps remaining on the standard 30 amp shore cord to run the 2nd a/c and other items. This setup works great and we have enjoyed it for many years.
