To be fair no 30A rig can power everything on board at the same time...so that's really not FR's fault.
As to the wiring thing, yeah I have seen that and worse in so many rigs that im not really surprised. Obviously QC is cursory on certain things! Sad
No it can't.
Our new Forest River trailer has a residential refrigerator in it and it has a 15,000 BTU A/c unit.
If the electric water heater is on and the refrigerator and AC unit kick on at the same time the inrush current will trip the 30 amp breaker.
I couldn't figure it out at first, and thought I had a bad breaker, but after it became a nuisance, I did some math and figured it out.
We are temporarily using the water heater on propane until I install a new 50 Amp supply to a new breaker panel and change some wiring.
It is another goof on Forest River's end !
