We are using 30 amp where we are now. If I am using the fireplace heater and turn on the induction stovetop, microwave, or a hair dryer the heater goes off. If we try to use the microwave and stovetop the microwave goes off. Is this a normal occurrence?

Yes look at your power management system, it will shed power to the lower priority devices for a moment then bring them back online when the demand goes away

I'm guessing you don't have this issue when you are using 50 amp service?

Will the hairdryer turn off the fireplace if it is plugged in elsewhere....like an outlet in the bedroom?

30 amps go pretty fast. Also...you might not be getting the full 30 amps from the campground. Can you test that?
