There have been a couple of occasions at a 30 amp park when we tripped the park 30 amp breaker due to running the A/C, microwave, and water heater on electric all at the same time. Just not enough power to do that. I don’t think I could run both A/Cs on 30 amp. 30 amp gives 3,600 watts of power to the trailer. 50 amp gives you 12,000 watts of power. We do have a 50 amp trailer and use a 50/30 adapter at 30 amp parks.
Really surprised the OP had two A/Cs on a 30 amp trailer. But this thread actually originated back in 2004.
