So I did a test when I got home, got the wife involved also, unfortunately I did not get the results I was hoping for.
I have the RV plugged into a 20 amp circuit thru a power strip with a reset on it, not sure what amperage it is. I started the AC and waited for it to cool and was watching the BMV as well as the Touch 50. When I had the wife turn the power strip off nothing happened the AC kept running. Puzzled I had her turn the shore power back on and noticed on the Touch 50 that I was in the "Assist" mode so the Inverter was already helping so there was no power "spike" to cause an issue. Going into the Touch 50 I had the incoming power set to 15 amps so with the AC on it was in Assist mode. I changed the input power to 50 amps and tripped the power strip where the camper was plugged in to. What does this mean? Did I learn anything? I am not sure. I will have to try on a 50 amp shore power site and see, sorry I do not have 50 amp here.
