This is the re-wiring I was referring to in my previous post. The + and - signs do not depict actual polarity, merely coil phases for ID. As you can see voltage is supplied to both outlets of the Powerpro 3500 at 120 with the coils in parallel. The meter will read the correct voltage and the breakers remain wired in series with the outlets. A very simple rewire that gets the job done. Have not done it yet, will post results when I do. Comments are welcome.
The schematic is posted in "my profile" for those interested.
as far as phasing you are find..
BUT you have the whole 120 volt full 29 amps going thru (1) breaker as the other breaker is in the neutral circuit of the 30 amp twist lock and NOT in the 120 volt 'LOAD'path and is NOT being used
IMO: the breakers should be paralled in the load path, by using the method I outlined, or you could replace the breakerin the 120 load path with a heavier one.
