Electrical Management Systems questions
I'm considering installing a hard wired EMS. I recently saw a thread, that I can't find again, that implied these EMS systems will not work with an inverter generator supplying the trailer. I real...

Hi Bobbo,
I can see a use for EMS with 50 amp. With 30 amp--not so much.
I have superior surge compared to what is available and use an Autoformer (boost and buck) to take care of low voltage.
I do have a way to limit my demand to 80% of what is available, so on 15 I limit to 12, 30 to 24, and 50 to 30.
An EMS to me would simply be another potential failure point.
I always check voltage under load and polarity before plugging into an unknown source.
