Don't forget that the breaker is only rated for 80% continuous of the rated number. In other words 24 amps continuous for a 30 amp breaker and 40 for a 50 amp breaker. Push it to the max and it will overheat and trip after about 2 to 4 minutes. I found that out at a park in the summertime. They had an electrician there doing some work so he looked over the breaker on my spot when it kept tripping. He replaced the breaker then measured the load and told me to shut something down as it wouldn't carry 45 amps continuous. It seems 2 AC's the washer, drier, fridge, water heater, computer, TV and satellite system were just a bit too much for the breaker to handle. Go figure..... :shock:

The park voltage was great, we just asked too much of the breaker.
