Just like that AC units shut off. Just hooked up at Koa west Yellowstone.
All’s good, inverter working. Boon docked last night. No generator. Haven’t changed anything.
Hooked up in west Yellowstone at a KOA. 50amp working, surge protector working.
Put air conditioning on as it was getting stuff and warm with high dusty winds.
Couple minutes later ac units abruptly shut off.
Circuit breakers not popper, reset anyway.
Shut thermostat off . Couple minutes later turned back on.
Ac started working for a few minutes, kicked off again.
Rebooted everything again ??
Still nothing...
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance

Little experiment. Shut Koa 50 amp service off put my generator on ....ac on and staying on!
But shore power is good when plugged in as well as surge protector.

What voltage do you have when on shore power, both legs?

Sounds like the transfer switch contacts, or maybe the coil.

are you running 2 AC's, if so it could be low voltage at the pedestal, when voltage goes down the amps go up. Your draw could be exceeding your 50 amp capacity.

Yes both legs . Did shore power on surge protector then shut that off did just generator. That’s when units worked more consistently.

Theirs that possibility that this KOA park isn’t putting out the full power. It is full. Thus the surge protector. Both legs were running equally

When my wife flushed the toilet both units shut off simultaneously. Thus your idea of less amps coming from park power is a thought. Never happened before!

Your toilet is 120 volts ?
If your toilet is 12 volts were back to a 12 volt issue .

Just exactly how do the house batteries charge and when do you know it’s time to replace them?
Hooked up to shore power, inverter on and batteries only at 12.50.
Checked batteries yesterday, did a little cleaning of one terminal that was beginning to corrode. Looked ok a few weeks ago. Hmmm
Batteries, Trojan T105 about 3 years old.
Thanks for thoughts in advance...
