What is the size of the breaker? I would check the size of the breaker and measure the amp load. Just guessing the load: 2 Reverse Cycle Cooling/Heating units 10 amps Water Heater 3 amps Battery charger 3 amps Total: 16 amps The breaker might be 25-30 amps and weak and need replacing... <> The heating element in the water heater has developed a pinhole and is causing the breaker which is probably a ground fault breaker to open. The heating element in your water heater has a life of about 3-5 years before this pin-hole will develop. When you buy the heating element, be sure to buy a gasket, or be prepared to make one. Hope this helps you. Bill BeBe 387 Rabat, Morocco
