I'm certain we were running the AC and the microwave when we tripped the generator circuit breaker. I'm beginning to think we might have been doing the same when we tripped the circuit breaker in the post.

I've been thinking about this (which you get lots of time to do when you cover 400-450 miles a day!). The circuit breakers in the distribution panel are 20A for AC and 15A for the microwave. If they were both pulling the full amount of amperage, that could account for the tripped circuit breakers.

In our previous RV, there was no issue running the AC and microwave at the same time. Just wondering if other people are having this issue?

Or, is this a sign of an issue with a loose connection somewhere?

Our 25.2 has the 15K BTU AC.
Sorry, I may be an exception to the other comments with our 24.1 Axis. We have never been able to run both the A/C and the microwave without throwing the circuit breaker. We were also told during the PDI that we couldn't. So we don't.
