30 amp circuit breakers are rated at 28 amps continuous when new. Every time they are tripped they degrade a little. The 30 amp circuit breaker can handle 30 amps for about 10 minutes before it trips. My coach was refitted with an EMS. The main 15,000 Coleman Mach 15 draws 15 amps when turned on (after compressor spin-up). On hot days after running for an hour or more its draw is up to 18 amps total. My Coleman Mach 8 Cub draws 12 amps and temperature doesn't seem to matter. So no, both will not operate for very long on 30 amps on a hot day. I haven't tried it on a 80 degree day as only one A/C is need to keep the coach cool.
