Just a heads up this video was just posted 2 hours ago. (I thought others should know and be aware!)
It talks about how there maybe a ban on the use of auto-transformers at RV parks and explains his thought as to why.
Personally I agree with him, however, I'd rather the "other guy," that doesn't have his RV on even a surge protector, have his stuff fail because everyone is running there A/C's at the park. Surge protectors are "cheap" insurance to keep your fridge, A/C, microwave (and in my case 5 digit-cost computer servers) etc... from damage. IMHO, auto transformers are ever better insurance.
You want to fix the problem?
1. Actually plan for full parks and maximum demand. AKA 30A draw at a 30A site. 50A@240v at a 50A site.
2. Go solar to help #1
3. Dont have so many sites with electric hookup if your electric service can't handle it.
