30-AMP SERVICE
On a 30-amp system, up to five (5) circuits are permitted to distribute power through the
trailer. All breakers are sized according to wire size and expected circuit loads.
I
WARNING: Do not replace breakers or fuses with any that are rated at
a higher amperage. Over fusing may cause a fire by over heating the
wire.
The following table provides generic circuit breaker alignment information. Your trailer
may not be exactly the same as shown depending on model, floor plan, and options.

CONSUMPTION OF 120-VOLT AC POWER
Your recreation vehicle is equipped with a 120-volt/30 ampere power cord and load center.
A maximum of 30 amperes (or 3600 watts) of power can be consumed at any given time. It
may be necessary to stagger the use of some appliances to maintain power usage at 30
amperes or below. Accessories such as coffee pots, toasters, electric skillets, curling irons,
etc. can use a significant amount of power and need to be included in your power
consumption plan.
12-Volt DC System
The 12-volt DC system is composed of numerous items such as a power converter, battery,
fuses, wire, and bulbs, both interior and exterior lighting. Explanation on these items will
follow in this section.
I
WARNING: For the breakaway switch to be operational, an auxiliary
battery needs to be installed. Consult with your independent,
authorized dealer to purchase the battery and have it installed.
Caution: Your RV has many 12-volt DC loads. When combined, they total more
power consumption than is available with the 12-volt DC converter. Periodic
overloads can be handled with the optional auxiliary battery for short periods of
time. It is suggested to conserve your 12-volt DC system at most times. Prolonged
overload may shorten the performance life of the power converter.
