i know as people have stayed at my place with their newells, every one of them tripped the breaker on my house. if i remember right, the zonkers, days and hockwald's all did.

however, mine has never done it. i attributed it to the EMS (electrical management system) that my coach has on it. it monitors incoming curretn, voltage and freq and polarity and will shut the coach off if any of them are out of spec and if there is a surge. somehow that system protects mine from tripping.

i also think that the way the neutrals are done on the coach has something to do with it.

i will call my son-in-law tomorrow and get his expert advice. he has a phd in power engineering and works for the power company.
