4000 watt generator for 30 amp 120v RV?
The factory cable on my travel trailer is 30amp 120v = 3600watt capacity. I'm considering purchasing a 4000w propane generator, but it has two 120v 15amp outlets. I tested my neighbor's 5500 Watt Generator using one of its 120v 15amp receptacles with my travel trailer (I bought a 15amp to 30amp adapter for $5 at WalMart) - but the AC kept tripping the generator fuse. What is my best option? Find a generator wired for 120v 30amps? Rewire the one I'm going to buy?
4000w will be over the capacity that your rv can handle, so you should step it down just a notch. The reason your ac kept setting off the breaker is because you didnt have enough amps for it to run on. What you need to look for is a 120v 30amp generator in the 3000-3600w range. Anything higher can and will fry some of the electronics inside the rv. My family owns a small deer camp and we have electrical outlets to run our campers on. when we initially put in the power the electrician accidently put us on the 220v line and we had to replace everything that was plugged in.
EDIT:
You can also contact a local rv dealership to see what they recommend and they might just have the perfect generator for you.
