The ILC Load Center provides the convenience of an all-
inclusive lightweight power center in a durable housing and
injection-molded faceplate. The ILC includes AC circuit
breaker positions, DC fuse panel, and DLS Series Converter
for providing practical accessibility and the level of power
you require.

I. LOCATION

The ILC should be mounted on an interior vertical surface
where there is sufficient depth to allow for space for the
panel and wiring behind it. Typical locations include under
counter cabinet fronts or sides, below closet compartments,
overhead cabinet fronts, and bed pedestals. 

Under floor

storage compartments in the back wall of closets are
not acceptable, as the panel must not be installed in the
rear of any storage compartment.

 Eye level locations are

best, where possible, as it is easier to reset or replace break-
ers or fuses.

The location chosen must have access space in front for
service after installation. This space is defined by the Na-
tional Electric Codes as 24

 

wide by 30

 deep. However, if the

ILC is mounted facing the aisle, then one of these dimen-
sions may be reduced to 22

. Behind the wall, the converter

on the back of the ILC requires a minimum of 3 cubic feet for
45A models and 5 cubic feet for 55A models.

When choosing a mounting location for the ILC, consider-
ation should be given to its proximity to supply components,
such as powercord (or powercord/generator/inverter lines
from a transfer switch) on the 120 VAC side, and the bat-
tery/converter locations on the 12 VDC side. Where pos-
sible, consideration should also be given to mounting the
ILC toward the middle of the RV, thus equalizing the length
of the different 12 volt branch circuits, in order to minimize
DC voltage drop. This is preferred to circuits which must run
the entire length of the vehicle.

II.  CABINET PREPARATION

Cut an opening in the face of the cabinet for the ILC. The
cabinet face must be strong enough to support the unit dur-
ing vehicle operation. Approximate dimensions for the open-
ing are 7 1/8

 high and 12 3/8

 

wide. If the opening is cut into

light paneling the opening must be framed with support
members into which Load Center mounting screws may be
driven and to which cables may be attached.

Determine how many branch circuits will be used. Remove
the rectangular knockouts for those branch circuits. Mount
the ILC in the opening on the cabinet using four screws.

III.  120 VOLT COMPARTMENT

Install an 8 gauge copper chassis ground wire to the Load
Center ground bar. A hole in the case is provided for wire
entry directly  to the bar.

The ILC Series Load Center is a compact, attractive, elec-
trical distribution panel designed to handle the 120 volt AC
and 12 volt DC distribution of an RV or other similiar AC/DC
system. The 120 volt compartment is rated for 30 amps 120
VAC, and will accommodate from two branch circuits to a
maximum of one pole main and seven branch circuits. Stan-
dard configuration for an RV with 30 amp powercord is a 30
amp main and five branch circuits. Installations with greater
than five branch circuits require the incorporation of a listed
energy management system. The 12 volt compartment will
accommodate twelve circuits utilizing blade type fuses. The
panel is acceptable for Canada by utilizing optional bush-
ings in the 12 volt wire entry holes. It comes with a standard
Two-Year Warranty.
