Power issues, breaker trips always now?

Just to be clear, it's the breaker in the box on the horse shed that is tripping. It does not have a red or yellow button labeled "Test".

Stuff in you fridge is melting because it is not working. If the 120V power is on and you still get a "Check" light then there is something wrong with the fridge itself. Don't forget that the fridge uses 120V power as well as your space heater.

When you talk to the electrician, tell him you need a 50A RV hookup, which is really just a 25A 120/240 household connection. If the box at the horse shed has 240 power, which I suspect it does, then he could give you 50A RV service, which is really 2 25A household circuits. He might have been thinking you need a single 50A connection.

Yes, the breaker in the box on the horse shed trips, the breakers inside my trailer haven't yet tripped ever. No test button.

The fridge has the check light on constantly, all day, even with the heater off. How can I assess the fridge issue? That's a pain if it's needing to be replaced - I do assume it's the original from 1999 though, haha.

I did try to explain RV hook up, he even had to unplug my current hook up to take a look at the 30amp plug.. I don't know how else to explain it to an electrician if they've never dealt with an RV hook up, are there specific electricians I should be looking into in that case? I had two local electricians come out to give me a quote, both basically same price and both said only could do 30amp. Perhaps I'll have to find a third. Cause yeah, if possible, I'd prefer 50 long term.

Heck, at the cost I'm looking at due to the distance from the box I should invest that $750+ into solar or wind power for the trailer instead haha.
