Flipping 30A breaker
Interested to know how often, or if ever, people are tripping their 30A breaker with the A/C running alone. (Thinking when it is really hot and the A/C is running hard) Thanks!
Had an older rig that kept tripping the breaker, like Grit_dog claims, could be a weak breaker. The issue I found was that the wires attached to the breaker had come loose as a result of heating (resistance) and cooling over many years. Check all the wires connected to your breakers and make sure they are tight. I believe that this occurs with aluminum wire more often than copper. I think what Bid_time was saying is, make sure the shore power outlet breaker is 30A, not 20A
