Microwave doesn't work on the genny....
It is quite strange actually... It has power and turntable rotates but it doesn't cook. Get to the campground, plug in, and it works fine. I can't imagine that a 4500 watt gen won't run a microwave...

One thing I recommend for everyone is to buy an inexpensive Kill-A-Watt meter. Kill-A-Watt
Plugging this in to any outlet on your RV, when the generator is running, will tell you if the voltage is correct, the 60 cycle frequency is correct, and what happens to everything when a load is applied. When plugged in to shore power, this same meter will tell you if the shore power is high or low power, etc.
Basically it is an inexpensive piece of equipment that can help with troubleshooting any electrical problem.
