Breaker Issues in Upper 90's

[David Ward]

Ray, My first thought would be that the power you are plugged in to is not a true 50 amp, but rather a single leg connected to both sides of the outlet. If you have a voltmeter, read between the two hot connections. If it is true 50 amp service it will read 240 Volts approx. If it is not true 50 amp but both legs wired to one leg of supply it will read 0 Volts. Here is a link to instructions for building a 50 amp tester http://www.myrv.us/electric/Pg/tester_50amp.htm Dave Ward 80FC31SB Mesa, AZ --- On Wed, 6/8/11, Ray wrote: From: Ray Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Breaker Issues in Upper 90's To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com Date: Wednesday, June 8, 2011, 4:35 AM Hey Folks, Im in the Hot and Sunny South. I'm plugged up to 50 amp service. My upper dash gauges... Leg One Volts reads left of 60 volts, Leg Two Volts reads 125... My Leg One Amp gauge reads 0, Leg two reads normally as it fluctuates to the pull of the air conditioners and appliances... If I run all three air conditioners and I turn on the water heater it kicks the breaker out on the pole. I can run two air conditioners and the water heater ok... It just seems that everything thing is on Leg Two... Never had this problem before now. I've always been able to run everything at once with no issues... Help if you can...
