complaints when using a hughes autoformer
I am looking at a used hughes autoformer. I know some parks rules say they are not allowed. Some parks we have been in, I have seen voltage at @ 102 to 104 with my a/c on. I would be using a PI 3o...

My Surge Guard has never tripped off for low voltage.
Does your surge guard have a low voltage feature? They are not all created equal!
My Progressive EMSalets me to something 2 or 3 times a year. I am not a full timer.
There are electrical problems out there. I imagine most of us with autoformers eventually purchased them after experiencing low voltage sites first hand.
In time you realize these low voltage sites are lurking and in many cases the CG's are reluctant to address the issue.
Autoformers allow individual campers to protect their own equipment from low voltage damage.
I have a SurgeGuard 35550 installed in my coach:
"Product description"
"This 50 amp Surge Guard product monitors shore power continuously and shuts off when it detects power surges, open ground, open neutral, low or excessive voltage, miswired pedestals, reverse polarity, or elevated neutral current conditions that could damage electronic equipment in your coach. Like its 30 amp partner, the 50 amp hardwire unit is permanently installed within the bay of your coach, preventing potential theft and damage from the elements. Optional Remote LCD Display conveniently and remotely monitors RV electrical power."
