If the solar charger can keep up with that I am all set. I will be returning today to check it. Great insight though, thanks.
You never answered the question? Is it a GFCI outlet that is tripping?



GFCIs do NOT trip on overload - there is a separate breaker for that.

There are combined GFCI/Overload breakers;


but they usually supply multiple outlets, not a single pole.

Since this is a storage area I doubt you have access to the breaker panel to reset an overload condition so I can only assume you are tripping a GFCI outlet, WHICH DOES NOT TRIP ON OVERLOAD.

So you have 3 choices:

Plug into a non-GFCI circuit
Find the ground/neutral bonding problem in your MH
Purchase an isolation transformer for about $500.
