Ok yes that makes sense. When you place the 30 amp surge between your trailer and the power source that will be the “limiter” for maximum power. Should your trailer receive more than the 30 amp draw the surge protector will “trip” isolating your trailer from too much power (current). Some protectors have a reset button while others are fried and need to be replaced . I hope that helps explain this power isolator.
