Checked into a Park today. Checked water and electricity first. Everything working fine. We even turned on 2 ac units no problem. After setting everything up we had 1 ac on and just sitting and relaxing. After about 2 1/2 hours the power went off. Checked the breakers no problem. Went out to the pedestal. Bull dog surge protector was RED. Showed error E1. Cods list “line 1 voltage error.”

Obviously the Park office is closed (CHRISTmas day) I am not very handy. Obviously I will be at office in the morning but is there anything I can / should do tonight to get power. The spaces on either side are being used and pedestals only have 1 socket.

FYI 120 plug is working I have a string of lights plugged into it. It has a separate breaker. Couldn’t get a very good picture for some reason but here it is.

Is there an empty spot anywhere else in the park?
 
Yes there are empty spots. Not one on either side of me. I’m sure going to demand a different sport tomorrow but I’m not moving a 5th wheel and all our set up in the dark.

Again,I’m not handy at all and we can “ Boondock” tonight just didn’t didn’t know if there was a safe “get around” for getting power tonight.

My neighbors on each side have electricity.
 
I had this issue last week, several times. Watchdog cut electricity off under 104 v and over 132. The park electrician said park electricity goes up to 135. The only ems they have problems with is the Watchdog. He changed the breaker and made sure all connections were tight.

I don’t want 135 v coming into the coach. He had no explanation why the power varied so widely.
