Nelson, I'm not sure the procedure you use to flush the toilet so will just tell you how we do it. We started this on the advice of someone else after we, too, had a serious clog a few years ago. We always add enough water, using the right pedal, to the bowl to float the paper, then flush. We call this the "power flush". We've had no problems with clogs since. What happens otherwise is there is not enough water to pull the paper down into the tank so it sticks to the sides. There it dries hard. It doesn't take too many layers of dried paper to clog things up. I'm not positive this is what is happening to you but it just might be.

On 30 amp you should be able to use two high draw items, sometimes three depending on which items. By chance was your AC running at the same time? Or maybe the electric water heater element was heating water at that particular time?
