Lost power to A/C and outlets

[Dede64]

I am dry camping right now. Turned on the generator this afternoon to charge batteries and was using the microwave when the AC kicked on. Something blew and i have been trouble shooting ever since. It didn't trip the breakers and all fuses seem to be fine. I have no ac, no outlets on either side of my rig but the control panel is still working and so are the lights. I am at a loss as to what else to check. Can anyone shed light on this?

I hate the word "flip" when applying to breakers.
Turn off all breakers, applying light pressure toward off. Then turn on main breaker if equipped followed by branch breakers one at a time.

one maybe two breakers on the side of the generator control box

flip all the way off, then back on

next time turn off a/c before using MW

you did not specify the generator or the RV
but a 4000w generator in a 30amp RV, is going to have a hard time doing A/C, 1000 cooking watt MW and battery charging, all at the same time

A/C compressor surge can be as high as 54amps for milliseconds
1000 cooking watt MW uses about 1600w real watts input power

so there you are charging batteries, MW cooking, and the A/C cycles.. Uh Oh

Check for possible ground fault trip on one of your GFI outlets. Some trailers have them wired so if one trips they all go out

Yep, my guess is you tripped the breaker on the gen.

Did you check the breakers on the generator?
