    If your EMS at the post is reading correctly, the problem is “downstream” from that. Either your cord or a connection within the trailer.

    To be clear, he said it will not reset, not that it trips again. (won't reset = no power)

    Agree it is probably cord or the connection at trailer not rotated and locked in properly.

    Possible nuetral problem. Do any of the lights go bright and dim when something kicks on? I just had a loose burned up nuetral wire on the inside of the 50 amp recepticle on the trailer side. That would mess with the GFCI. IT also could be a loose phase wire there. I believe three screws and you can pop the receptile out. Look at where the plug goes into the trailer and see if it is discolored, brown.

    If the same guy that wired my 2017 Reflection wired his then it would explain the issue. One of the #6 wires was not properly attached to the 50 amp breaker. See picture where black wire is not inserted into the breaker before the screw was tightened.

    The screw was frozen I suspect from heat due to poor contact, and I needed to replace the breaker.

    These RVs are built by people that get paid by the unit, piece work. No worries, they are built to RVIA standards and are inspected by...…….
    the manufacturer.

    Every time Jerry posts this picture I just get PO'd. Carelessness that could kill.

    Yep, I'm a retired electrician.

    I completely agree..
    I don't think most understand how much heat that can create..
    Well,, the set screw won't turn anymore..
    This is a fire waiting to happen..
    In my experience loose wires and pinched / shorted wires are fairly common in these rigs..
    I've had a few myself..
