How Low is Too Low (Voltage)

Agreed, +/- 10%.

I'm sure you're referring to an EMS (electrical management system).

Just to enlighten folks that may not know, surge protectors do not provide any protection against continuous low or high voltage. Surge protectors only provide protection against momentary high voltage surge or spikes from lightening strikes or other momentary electrical anomalies.

Some surge protectors DO protect from low & high voltage conditions.

Also check voltage at post. If OK there when microwave on it is your plug or connections in the RV C/B panel

I really start getting nervous when it hits 110VAC... Especially with the high wattage items...

My management system in my MH shuts the power off at anything less than 108V. In my Airstream I've been running the micro at 100V off a Honda 2000 and other than taking longer it seems to work fine.

10% is about it. So from 120v that would be dropping down to 108v.
