I'm currently using between 3000 and 5700 watts of electricity using 3 shore power cords. None of them are operating at over 80% of their capacity. Ambient temperature last night was -27 c (-17 f).
I'm using a 50 amp break out box that has a 30 amp outlet on one leg, and twin 20 amp outlets on the other. Each circuit has its own breaker (30,20,20). I realize that is some what unbalanced.
At 5700 watts the voltage is down to 104. I should have put my autoformer into the mix. The amps number is 54.8, unevenly split over a 50 amp pedestal.
