I have had the circuit breaker pop twice while running both AC unites while running down the Highway. We had measured the current with both units running and they are about 20 amps. I also had the frig. going. What are my options.
I will need to run them when I go home and I am in FL and it is hot or drive only when it is cooler out. It was 95 deg F in the coach when we reached a RV Park and my wife was about out of it. It took about 1 hour to cool down. I have reset the circuit breaker on the ONAN. None of the RV breakers had to be reset.
I have access to 4kw ONAN for parts if that would help

I had a similar problem on a Palm Beach that I once owned. I talked
with GeneF about it, and he said to disconnect power to the coach,
open up the breaker panel, take off the cover so you can get to the
screws on the breakers where the wires go into them, and tighten all
of them. It was amazing how many were loose. After running down the
road for 30 or so years and shacking about alot, some screws can come
loose. Never had a problem with the AC units dropping out again. Just
a thought.
