We have three from factory (2019).
The EMS only shuts down circuits when on 30 or 20 amp service.

On gen or 50 amp service the system ‘assumes’ you have full power available.

Nothing shuts down. Two AC’s on one line, 3rd on the other line.

Assuming a 30 amp draw from two AC’s running still leaves 20 amps on that line.

Last year over the July 4th week in Gettysburg the temps were 95-100 all week.

Trailer stayed at the low 70’s and the AC units cycled.
Well worth the option.

And we use the electric for the water heater, also have washer, dryer and dishwasher.

We also have the Magnum hybrid inverter.
So if there was a shortage of current available the inverter will kick in and supplement the line.
It is possible that we may have exceeded available power for a moment or two and not known about it.
