Just started having issue where I am not getting full voltage from Generator, Power Teck 6k. Generator starts and sounds fine, but as soon as I put a load on it, it trips one of the 30 Amp flip switches on the generator. Any thoughts, currently boon docking so no access to shore power to test anything else.

I had the issue with tripping the breaker. The breaker went bad. Replacing the breaker solved my problems.

Thanks, is there an easy test to verify it is the breaker?

The fact that it kept tripping when putting it under a load made me think it was bad. Everything worked fine when plugged in which convinced me that there were no other problems.
