a/c unit trips the breaker

Recommended Posts

when starting up one of our dometic duo therm a/c units it will run for a while. yesterday it ran for 6 hours. then it tripped the breaker. this problem started about 3 weeks ago. since that time i have replaced the fan/run  capacitor and the motor capacitor. does anyone have an idea what i should look for next?

If you have an clamp amp meter, check to see if the load is very close to the rating of the breaker. If so, you may need to replace the breaker.

How old is the unit? How was the power coming in to the pedestal? I have run into when the load increases in the park or on the system it will lower the voltage.

I would do what Ross said.
