Electrical Gremlins
While on 50 amp. shore power, and running a couple of electric heaters
plugged into the outlets, several circuits stopped working. The front
electrical outlets and, interestingly enough, the hot water heater are
all out.

I couldn't find a tripped breaker even though I reset everything. So I
was thinking that perhaps a breaker was, uh ... broken ... and needed
to be replaced.

This morning I began to realize that the circuit that was out
approximated one side of the dual 30 amp hookup. Sure enough, when I
plugged a 30 amp line into the box I am getting hot water and the
forward electrical outlets are on again.

Anyone have any ideas as to what's going on?
