Electrical Problem - Converter?

[brrit]

We've been camping in our Class C Jayco Seneca for a few days now. Got here and stayed on shore power with no troubles for a day.

Went to drive around town and came back to shore power. The Flat screen started smoking. Then, the ac units (we have 2) stopped working. No 110 power in outlets either. They would come on for a minute or two and then shut off.

Once we ran the generator, 110 outlets started working again. Also, discovered that our microwave isn't working and appears to have no power at all. Fan, lights, and clock on it aren't working either.

Couple of neighbors suggested it might be our converter. We tested the power at the pedestal and it looks good. The rv park had us leave due to the noise, which I understand. So now we are camping in a parking lot with the generator on.

Any suggestions?

West end - running a 50 amp service in the rig. Also tried the 30 amp plugin on the pedestal to see if that was the issue. Didn't help.

Our neighbor tested the pedestal with a device that handles over voltage situations. Sorry I don't know more about it. He did mention that his device did register several over voltage occurrences in the past couple of days.

Please state how you checked the pedestal connection. The symptoms you describe are very similar to an over-voltage situation.

Also, a description of your RV's electrical service (30 amp, 50 amp?) would be good.
