If the EMS completely fails just remove it. Just 4 wires to move or twist on some large wire nuts to bypass. Mine (30 amp hardwired)is working fine for a decade.
When my PT50X portable fails after taking a hit or other reason, I just unplug it and plug in my spare. Yes, I have 2 of them. Worth every cent they cost. While the dead one is going back for service I'm still protected. This has happened 4 times over the past 8 years of full time use.
i'm glad to see somebody other than me carries a spare - so many shoddy electrical systems in campgrounds, good to have piece of mind.
From my recent reading, the new versions of the portable unit are not getting stellar reviews. 2 biggest complaints are the incompatibility of the weather cover and today's large cords, especially 50a, and the weather-tightness of the unit, which has caused failures and they seem to not be wanting to warrant them without hassles. I plan on a hard-wired unit because of this.
