Actually I'm one of those "**** Yankees" from NH displaced here by the Air Force. I retired in 1995, found a job, hence "****ed", and stayed. The weather was really nice that day, too warm for heat so I kicked on the a/c. We don't usually kick on the a/c till the end of March.:-P

Started by turning on all the 110v circuits one at a time. She just ate it up. I monitored the voltage...

The aux outlet has a reduced capacity. Well I'll have to do some more load testing from the...

That would be great! Thanks!
