Section 6: Electrical System

120-Volt Circuit Breakers
The 120-volt AC circuit breakers located inside the load center protect all 120-volt wiring
and components from circuit overloads and short circuits. Should a circuit overload or short
circuit occur the circuit breaker protecting the affected circuit will “trip” preventing the flow
of electricity through that circuit.
If a circuit breaker trips, shut “off” the appliance on that circuit (i.e., power converter etc.)
and allow the circuit breaker to cool down for a brief period of time. After it cools down,
reset the circuit breaker by moving its lever “off” and then back to the “on” position. If the
circuit breaker re-trips or frequently trips, contact your dealer to have the electrical problem
diagnosed and repaired.
A circuit breaker identification label is permanently attached to the inside surface of the
120-volt Load Center.
Replacement
Only replace circuit breakers with those of the same specified type, voltage, and current rat
-
ing.
Never replace a circuit breaker with one listed at a higher amperage rating.
Please
contact your dealer for repair assistance when replacing circuit breakers.
Maintenance
At the beginning of camping season, inspect the circuit breakers and replace as needed. Test
by turning each circuit breaker “off” and back “on”. Circuit breakers are wearable parts and
must be replaced as needed, as part of your RV maintenance. If you have any questions,
consult your dealer.
A label is provided to explain the function of every 120-volt circuit breaker. This label is
located on or near the appropriate load center or sub-panel and must remain permanently
affixed to the recreation vehicle.
NOTE:
Load Centers may not always include a main circuit
breaker.
Circuit breakers and fuses will not offer complete protection of the electrical
system in the event of power surge or voltage spike.
Replacement circuit breakers must be of the same voltage, amperage rating
and type. Never use a higher rated replacement circuit breaker; doing so may
cause a fire by overheating the RV wiring.
Not all load centers will include a main breaker.
Motor homes may have separate small panels for breakers and fuses. They are normally
located in close proximity to each other typically in the bed platform. The converter is also
mounted separately (typically under the bed platform).
