Is any thing else turning off, when the A/C compressor cycles
My vizio tv will drop out when voltage lags/drops when the compressor cycles, If I have the TV on a regular outlet
If the TV is on the inverter...no problem
Two ways to fix the problem
Turn the thermostat cooler..keep the a/c running , not cycling on off
Or power the the TV from an inverter
Most Converters don't have relays, unless they are combo inverter_chargers, in which case that is an internal transfer switch
If you don't have a combo unit...
Then most likely your ATS is making that racket, that means shore voltage is too low and drops really bad when the compressor cycles
The ATS will probably die before the A/C unit, but both are in danger
The ats is a real "PAIN" to replace
