1. YELLOW (like the sun) positive and GREEN (like the earth) negative leads runs from battery breaker
buss bar area to a harness inside the exterior refrigerator access door. The battery buss bar is located behind
the sofa on front lounge models or behind the front cabinets on slide outs, and next to the battery
compartment. Battery cables will run to this bar. Roof mounted panels require dropping the panel wires
down through the refrigerator vent to the inside of the exterior refrigerator access door. Portable solar
panels can be set outside close to the access door. The wires from the solar panel are connected to the
positive and negative wires (yellow and green) of the pre-wire system.
2. A Cat 5 patch cord for the solar panel display runs from the battery buss bar to an area just below the
CatCon monitor display. The solar panel display panel can be mounted just below the CatCon monitor
panel by routing the proper size hole. The Cat 5 wire is plugged into the display panel.
CAUTION
: The Yellow wire must be fused with a 10-amp in-line fuse at the 12-volt positive.
NOTE: All wires are identified with labels at all locations.
The Intermountain solar panel has charge controller that should be mounted close to the battery buss bars as
the battery leads are hooked into it to sense the actual battery charge. The Cat 5 wire plugs into it also.
The following drawing is the way Airstream wires the system on factory installed units and is the
recommended wiring for use of the pre-wire system.
