Problem came back.
Watched the external generator brown out to 90V. During a warm day yesterday after a couple hours running the air conditioning.
Was able to finally do a comprehensive test of everything since it stayed at 90 for a long time.
Confirmed the on board generator is functioning ok. Not perfect. Needs to be sped up. It’s putting out 110/109 at 56hz. But the power is stable and working properly.
The wiring is not currently an issue from the external generator to the air conditioner.
The wiring inside the external generator isn’t an issue.

The AVR inside the generator is misbehaving. That’s why it’s so intermittent. It’s an electronics problem.
Replacing the AVR as soon as I can get one.
Not sure what a AVR is but I’m glad you’re on top of it...However as I recall this malady occured when using either generator - is this not the case??
