Shoreline Power Supply
The Power Cord hookup is located on the side of the
trailer� The cord may be stored in the rear exterior
compartment� The power cord is plugged into the trailer
receptacle and the City Power Service�
NOTE
Use only power cords recommended by Airstream.
Many campgrounds provide less than 30-amp service,
and your hookup may blow their fuse or circuit breaker�
If this happens, reduce the load and replace the fuse or
reset the breaker�
Remote Generator Hookup
A remote generator hookup, if equipped, will be located
on the front plate of the trailer behind the LPG tanks�
A generator can be plugged into the 120-volt system
using this feature� A minimum of 5�5 KW with a 30-amp
breaker will be required to sufficiently power the 30-
amp service�
The system includes an automatic transfer switch to
prevent a power overload if a generator is started while
the trailer’s 120-volt shoreline is plugged into a 30-amp
service� The transfer switch will automatically switch
power from a shoreline source to a generator when it
senses power entering the switch from the generator�
When power is cut from the generator, the switch
returns to the shoreline as its power source�
NOTE
The remote generator hookup is not available with
50-amp service.
