Voltage variations and Surge cut off.
We are hooked up to 50A service. I just recorded the voltages at different areas and I will note them below. I have a Progressive EMS/Surge suppressor hard wired in just before the breaker box. It has...

1. Get a GOOD voltage reading with a regular Multitester/voltmeter. Do not trust the EMS system.
2. On TRUE 50 amp service, you have 100 amp available with the required supply wiring to the CG 50 amp plug. So, you should NOT see such a voltage variable between the 2 legs if the CG is wired correctly.
3. As others have mentioned. I would have the NEUTRAL wire and connection checked at both the CG pole plug and in your EMS connection and in your RV inside 50 amp breaker box. Loose/burnt Neutrals can create havoc and problems in a 50 amp RV.
4. On REAL correctly wired 50 amp service, you should have NONE of the problems you are experiencing.
5. You do show double the line voltage which shows out of phase 120 supply(which is correct), but that will not show if the supply wiring to the CG 50 amp plug is the correct gauge for true 50 amp service. IF the wiring is undersize, you will get voltage drops as you experience. Doug
