is it a 50a breaker in the coach?
breakers trip for 3 reasons. (my version)
1. a hard short. breaker curves allow for many times over the rating for a short time. like milliseconds to a few seconds. that happens when motors start. other loads are typically pretty steady from start to run. (lights, tv etc)
2. just plain ol running too much stuff. could be a 4th air con kicked on when you were running alot of other stuff, like the air compressor, the water pump, etc. if you draw over the breaker rating for enough time, either the coach main or the pedastal breaker will trip
3. breaker getting weak. does happen over time, but usually a very long time. and when it gets turned on and off a bit more than usual.
