Hey Paul, thanks for reaching out!
Have you checked all of the wiring on your Advent Air Replacement RV Air Conditioner # ACDOM150? If it was working just fine before but now trips the breaker when you start it up, then it leads me to believe that something in your wiring needs to be replaced or reconnected.
I see you purchased the Start Capacitor # ACMSCKIT which will help with the amount of power needed for the startup, but if you're having issues already, then you'll want to get the initial problem taken care of instead of just "patching" it up with the start capacitor.
Let me know if you're still having issues and I'd be happy to help you look further into this!
