Weird electrical problem

Hello,

I want to keep it simple and to the point:

When I connect my RV to the electrical hookup, the circuit breaker trips. I have all the appliances unplugged, inside circuit breakers off and even 15 AMP fuses removed. It's almost like there is a short circuit somewhere before the electric goes into the power supply, but that's not the case. I checked the connections. Somehow, the power supply trips the breaker before it even goes to the fuses/breakers. Does anyone have any idea what may be the issue?

Thanks in advance.

  • You need to following the AC wiring from where it comes in and goes to the panel. Would help to know what kind of RV you have. Does it have a Generator with a transfer switch? Inverter, etc. Some of those items are before the inside breaker panel.
