Power Surges and Class A motorhomes
I hear a lot about these. Anyone one ever have one? or two? What happens when its happening?

If using 240vac, you won't like the result if the neutral opens even briefly (bad connection anywhere along the feed line, your coach pigtail, "fatigued/overheated" plug neutral. etc. Pre-testing will indeed tell you if (circuit un-loaded) it's "OK" at that moment. Not completely worthless, but not a guarantee by any means. It might make you feel a little better but is NOT a solution... I'd suggest using 120 vac if I'm not using the surge suppressor. Very little danger from "loss of neutral" on 120 vac. (still could experience certain types of surges or "brown outs" there too, but rare - loss of neutral is not as rare as one might think)
