RV charging at home = instantaneous home GFCI pop
Not sure if I have a problem, or just a basic incompatibility.
I have a Thor Siesta. 30 amp power. On the road, I use a Progressive surge protector. No problems, except one place that did generate an error from the electric connection they gave me - tried another and it worked fine.
Anyway, I had the RV at home, and for some reason, I wanted to plug it into my home's standard electrical circuit - for charging, or some other reason. I used a dogbone adapter - plugged in the surge protector - no errors. Plugged the RV cord into the surge protector - INSTANT shutdown. Turned out the GFCI on that home electrical circuit had popped. Tried a different circuit - same thing. May have tried it without the surge protector - not sure I was brave enough...
Anyway - should this happen? Does it indicate a problem in either the home or RV wiring? Or ???
Thanks
Dan K
