How does an on board RV generator work?
The On Board RV generator has a fuel filter and is typically fueled by the on board fuel tank through the sending unit. Most on board RV generator sending units are plumbed higher than the automotive engine sending unit.
Can a 20 amp generator run a front air conditioner?
This makes it possible to run the front air conditioning unit on the 30-amp and the bedroom unit on the 20-amp all from the same RV generator. It is not uncommon for these circuit breakers to trip due to vibrations and bumps while traveling down the road.
Where does the AC breaker go on an RV generator?
Larger units with two roof air conditioners have a 30-amp circuit breaker that goes to the distribution center and a 20-amp breaker that goes to the back air conditioner. This makes it possible to run the front air conditioning unit on the 30-amp and the bedroom unit on the 20-amp all from the same RV generator.
What’s the best way to auto start a generator?
If boondocking on a hot night, close the bedroom door and run only the rear air on the auto-start. It will keep you comfortable while only running the generator as needed. If you need to leave your RV for a couple of days the auto-start will look after maintaining the batteries. Onan also offers a “Plug and Play” auto-start for existing rigs.

Which is the best generator for camping off the grid?
It’s smart to start with your air conditioner, as it’s likely going to draw the most power for the longest period of time within your travel trailer. Plus, your air conditioner will naturally draw more power when it’s first turned on. This is what’s called “Starting Watts.”
