Will generator run my unit
I got a 4000 watt generator that has two 115 plugs and each one is labeled 20amp. It also has a 240 plug that is also labeled 20 amp. I've read on here that a 4000 watt generator should run my trailer...

Depends on the generator I guess, my 4000 has a 4000 watts continuous run rating and 33.3 amps at 120 volts and a 6600a surge rating…
It produces enough stable power that it is equal to the 30 amp CG power in all respects…
While it has the 120 volt 15 amp, duplex receptacle, It also has a 120v/240v 20a that can be used for a 2400 watt, 20 amp, 120 volt connection, or a 4000 watt, 16.7 amp, 240 volt connection…
But it also has a 120 volt, 30 amp, round plug to use for the camper…
it gets very limited use and is almost exclusively for emergency power…
