What could be the difference between shore power and generator power?


Could be VOLTAGE.

What is voltage on that 20 amp shore power with extension cord with the A/C running?

Do you have an ATS? If so, have you checked that the connections are clean and tight and that the wires are not burned?


Please, before you go buy an extra/spare A/C, tell us what the VOLTAGE is with the A/C running!
