Intermittent fan\ac

Last night I wanted to use fan only just for circulation and it would cycle, just like when ac is on. Is this normal? Thermostat issue or possibly campground electric hook up issue, we do get 115-120 volts at outdoor receptacle.

    Works OK when in .auto. and running with A/C but when in ON fan runs intermittently??

    Sounds like t-stat switch/contacts.

    Is it an analog type t-stat........if it is replace with a digital

    Has nothing to do with CG voltage

    Thermostat....
    Select fan ON and it should run until you turn it off

    Could be issue with t-stat or run capacitor for fan

    What A/C unit and which t-stat??

    You didn't specify what exact hardware you are using, but some models of fans have a thermostat built in.

    The "fantastic fan" models that I have will cut on and off dependent on the temperature.
