Two AC's with 30 Amp Service ?

Hello...I am a new RV-er and have a million questions but maybe someone can help with one for now.....

I have 30 amp service and two AC's and the two will not run by generator at the same time....but the manufacturer says the Gen will run both but not with 30 amp service in the coach. I found a post that was very complete 6/2/2012 by ""Chaffkeekid"" showing with Pictures and with great detail how to mod wiring (pretty simple)to run two AC's with 30 Amp service....

Does anyone know if this mod was to run off the Generator or one unit off the Gen and the other off shore pwr?? Not sure.

Many Thanks...Ponder

PM me with your addy and I'll send you all the info for installing a dual power adapter and one of the best things I ever done, even though I also have an Energy Management System that prevents overloads, which simply sheds one or both A/C's until your microwave, etc, shuts off.
In essence your gen set is good for about 45amps min, so a good 15amps above shore power, even with the smaller units. You gen has a 20amp breaker for the rear air and a 30amp for the rest of the coach. This adapter simply splits this 20 amp feed with a plug and an outlet, so when unplugged from itself, it can be separately plugged in to a separate outlet at a campground pedestal or elsewhere. Keep in mind that this circuit switches over with a relay when on generator and is normally fed from your 30amp service when on shore power.
