50 Amp service question
My new travel trailer has 50 amp service and two air conditioners. When running both air conditioners the draw is 43 Amps does that mean I’m almost maxed out??

It depends. If they are both on the same leg, yes, but they should be on opposite legs of the 50 amp 120V/240V connection. A 50 amp RV service has 2 50 amp legs, for a total of 100 amps. If the loads are equally divided between the legs, you can actually draw 100 amps from a 50 amp service. Somewhat confusing, but that is the way it is...
