amps

[Todd757]

Got home today from a long weekend of camping. Plugged into my 50 amp on the barn and panel only shows 30 amp service. Checked the surge protector and they were reading 124 each. Both AC's are running and it shows I am only pulling 5 amps. Normally when both AC's are running I am pulling right at 20 amps.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Todd.

Are you positive both AC's are COOLING? 5 amps would be about what both fans would pull on the AC units if the compressors were not on. Doug

Start with a voltmeter and open up the box.

I have a volt meter. What can I check?

Id have a qualified electrician look at it for you. pretty difficult to diagnose unless I was there with a volt meter.
