Electrical Gremlins

[Don Bradner]

That one sounds the most likely. The water heater and the couple of electric
heaters may have exceeded 50 amps on the leg. Since the 50-amp breakers are
physically tied together normally everything would go, but it is not unheard of
for one side to pop but not strongly enough to dislodge the other leg.

The 30 amp would have been on a different breaker.

If it isn't the breaker, it would have to be the cord or plugs in the situation
described. I would bet on the breaker.
