Hope I'm in the right place. If not can I get guidance on where to go? Want to visit grandkids in AZ in June. Need to know how to make a 50 amp connection at son's house. Gotta have ability to run both airs. He has a 20amp and a 30 amp breaker available. Appreciate any help.
Several solutions and a bit of advice. Leave the wiring in your son's house alone. You can seperate the circuits for the two AC's and run two cords to your rig, feed one AC from the 20 amp circuit and the other + the rig from the 30 amp. Depending on the age of your units they will draw 16-19 amps each. The other way is to have a Pulse Air switching unit installed, ($199.00 plus $83 installation at Camping World), this unit cycles the AC back and forth so that only one is running at any given time. I'm not familiar with the following outfit, but it's a toll-free #. Power Solutions, 1-800-536-4995.
Thanx Kent. I believe my coach has the ability to cycle back and forth. I just never feel like it does a good job. I'll look into the procedure for spliting the two A/C's. I would guess my best source is American Coach. I'll give them a call in am. Again thanx for the info.
1st advice was simplest, cheapest, and most efficient. Pulse air is nothing more than expensive "smoke and mirrors" and even if you run two cords, you're still going back to the same 2 breakers that you could just as easily wire a pigtail female to and get the 220 u really want. Also, you may want to visit again, so why not do the permanent fix to begin with?
Thanx, I agree. We will be visiting often, and with 50 amps waiting we won't be as hesitant. |
