RV Repair: shore power versus generator, winnebago chieftain, amp service
Questionwhen my rv is plugged into the generator both roof ac's work at the same time (1989 winnebago chieftain 31rq) but when I am plugged into shore power Only one of them can be worked at a time? Is there any way (cheaply) to make both of them work at the same time when plugged in? I have only a 30amp power cord. thanx
AnswerWilliam, I am sure there is a way that you can do that but there is not any safe way to do it without changing to a 50 amp service cord. The reason you can do it with the generator is probably because it is a 5 kwh or better generator. It is not a good idea to over amp the rating of the wiring. I am sorry this is not better news but safety is always the best way to be. Thanks, Bill
