Ok to run 5500 Onan on 20 amp curcuit?
Does anyone run their 5500 Onan on a 20 amp plug? The Onan manual I have states the running amps well under 20 but I dont know what the start-up amps would be, if its even different.

The question is worded completey wrong. But I guess we can almost know what was meant.
I lived in my MH for 5 months on a borrowed 20 amp circuit. The A/C ran almost all the time, along w/ all the normal sat tv etc etc. We tripped the breaker only 2 times, when DW mistakenly hit the Micro while the A/C was on.
And that was on a 100 ft 12ga cord no less. (hard to believe I know) I never had an ac voltmeter 9 yrs ago, but the A/C startup always sounded good.
