Ernie, It doesn't sound right that the factory surge protector is tripping with the Progressive in front of it. Is that the new model that was installed on the 2015? Have you called Progressive and asked their opinion? I would be interested in hearing about that one.

good idea Chuck; I'll try Monday to talk to both TRC and Progressive. Doesn't quite add up for me why all these coaches are having similar circumstances where power surge trips power off, but it will not reset automatically.

Ernie, I also had a similar situation and didn't think much about it, until now.
In my storage hanger someone is always tripping a circuit breaker. One morning I came in and the batteries were dead. Checked the circuit breaker and it was not tripped. I recycled the breaker and had power again. Until you mentioned this happening, I never gave it a second thought. I also have a HW Progressive.

I went through a couple of TRC transfer switches (on Entegra's dime) before buying a Progressive Dynamics replacement (on my dime). Coupled with a Progressive Industries (different company) EMS all is good now.

While in the basement doing the fluid flush and pump change on the AH last week, I noticed the transfer switch was chattering for no reason. I will add that to the PDI list. Thanks Bob.

I have been away from the forum for a while so I just caught up on this. I wish we could find an answer. This is hard on the batteries and whatever food is in the fridge. Sounds like even if I had a EMS I would still have this issue. We normally do not load the coach until we are ready to leave the next day. This time we loaded up a week early.

I installed a new TRC transfer switch on Entegra's dime also.
