roof A/C TRIPS 20 AMP BREAKER
WORKING ON ROOF A/C it runs and is cold for about 15 to 20 minutes and then it trips the 20amp breaker that it is connected to. trailer breaker box. I was thinking possibly I should use a 30 amp break...

Low voltage will cause the AC to draw more current, what size power cord are you using to feed it and how long is it?
Next I would see what the current draw rating is on the AC unit.
If you up the circuit breaker to 30 amps you may be pulling 30 amps through wires that are only rated for 20 amps. Not a good idea.
