I don't think so. We found that loose neutral at the shore power plug and I believe that is what fried things "down stream". Windish is giving the electrical a once over from the plug on down. The day the Fireplace fried, I grabbed the meter and checked voltage at the converter and had 220V on one leg and 0V on the other !!. That has to mean that there was a serious back feed somewhere, I believe the plug dropped the neutral.
None the less, when I get her home, I am putting in the Progressive EMS.

Wow - come to think of it, I better check that plug as well.
I always said bah humbug on the surge suppression, but for this rig, with all the electronics, I went with the Progressive EMS as well. Its installed up above the generator near the ATS.

Make sure your plug on back of the trailer is a square and not the round one. The service center was replacing all the round plugs.

All because he isn't commenting on the forum doesn't mean he's not reading. He found it once....I doubt he'll forget we're here.

They were having some sort of problem so they started switching them out on the trailers that made it to the service center
