Question:
After reviewing one of your answers, the difference between the 55301 and 55312 is that the 55301 automatically resets if the voltage falls above or below and theres a surge. The 55312 does not protect against the low or high voltages but would protect against a large power surge. If it does detect and protect against a large power surge, it CAN be manually reset or its a one time protection like a fuse?

You are correct. The 30 Camco RV Power Defender Voltage Protector # CAM55301 is like a circuit breaker and automatically resets if there's a surge whereas the 50 amp Circuit Analyzer part # CAM55313 is like a fuse and it only can handle one surge.
For a 50 amp breaker style you'd need the part # CAM55306.
