Shore power tripping sometimes. Oct 9, 2020 16:23:55 GMT

Hi,
I have a 4 year old Merry Fisher 855. Great boat, twin Honda 150’s but a problem has appeared with the mains electricity system.
I came into my home marina a few weeks ago and connected my shore power but the pontoon trip switch kept tripping. I went back 3 days later to investigate but it worked fine. The same thing happened last week when I visited another marina. After 3 days it sorted itself out.
ive checked for water ingress and loose connections but everything seems to be in order.
Has anybody out there had a similar fault? I’m fed up scratching my head again.

Replaced it with a Victron one, far superior than the French one.
