When Lon is wrong he slithers away like a snake. He just
pulls his upper lip over his eyes so no one will see him.
WILL's lap dog don't know his ass from a hole in the ground.
he said Bob Hatch was going to back him up but Bob was smart
enough to know Lon VanOstran is full of ***. He don't even
know a good example of recepticals connected in series. One
dumb ass that isn't smart enough to come in out of the rain.


Well, he didn't say I would back him up, he said that I would give
accurate advice, and I can't until I know more about the posters
problem, and I've asked him for that information.

You were wrong. The converter would not have anything at all to do
with a heater causing a breaker to pop. The converter doesn't have a
damn thing to do with 120 volt power. You've given advice on
electric that is somewhat less than safe, accurate and
knowledgeable, so in that respect, I back Lon up. The average guy
here should not pay much attention to your advice on RV electric
wiring. BTW, it would take a stone cold fool to wire 120 volt electric in
series.

Maybe you did not read what I posted just the sniped part
that Lon reposted. Here it is complete and it basically said
the same thing as what you did.">

" That setup seems very lopsided, to have everything BUT the
rear AC on the same leg! We ran into an overload problem in
the cold running 2 1500 watt heaters hooked up to a 50A
service...one of the circuit breakers on the inverter would
trip occasionally. It would be nice to steal some of that
minimally used second leg juice for some recepticles...how
easy is it to do that to prevent heater overload????

You did mean converter didn't you. But actually it is the
circuit breaker panel that is with the converter/charger,
referred to as the power distribution panel (pdp). Here is
what I did- your circuit breaker (cb) panel has several
connections, one cb for each circuit. I have one 20amp cb
labeled air conditioner (ac), you might have two,
considering you are 50amp and might have two ac units. I
installed a 20amp outlet adjacent to the pdp connected to
the ac cb. this is reserved for plugging in my 1500watt
heater. You could install two 20amp outlets connected to
each ac cb knowing you would not use the heater at the same
time as the ac. Modern day ac units do not normally use as
much power so you would be able to plug a small power
requirement item in at the same time as you ran the ac. But
another thing to consider is a heat strip in the current ac
unit, some units can accept a kit that has every thing you
need. I do not know how well the strip heat would work on
the ducted ac units."

Now you tell me I was wrong! I did not tell him how he could
do any thing, just what I did and what he could do. And if
you were to read the thread more you would find where I
referred him to the same URL that you later did.


When you said, "You did mean converter didn't you", and then again when you said "But actually it is the circuit breaker panel that is with the converter/charger, referred to as the power distribution panel".
So as you said there are no cbs on the inverter or converter they are on the pdp or Power Center as some call it.
One of the biggest mistakes when referring to a inverter or converter is getting the names mixed up. That is what the OP did as I seen it and generated my comment. Within the Power Center you actually have two pdps one ac and one dc and then you have a third component the converter/charger. But all this is semantics you know what I am talking about and just want to string it out for some reason.
