50 amp service is really TWO LINES of 50 amps each
So it's 160 amps total, need a 20kw generator
Me.. I would install a 15kw, and Three 30 amp outlets
Everybody can be equal, and the big rig will just have to learn power management
The extra watts from the generator will provide some overhead, and nobody will have low voltage , nor will the generator struggle when somebody turns on the MW while the a/C is on
He might trip his breaker, but he won't bother the generator
