Personally.....
I don't run my A/C unit when the AC Voltage drops below 108V.
Low(er) voltage causes higher amp draw. High amp draw means motor has to work harder.
And what good is having a 'power protection' device if you aren't going to use it?
Just don't run A/C and Microwave at same time.......lower your AC Demand by placing fridge/water heater etc. on propane.
It's your rig.......manage the load and protect YOUR equipment.
Maintenance guy isn't going to cover cost of damage to your stuff.
And those 'fuses'........they are to protect the CG's equipment not yours.
