our RV
contains separate low voltage
(12-volt DC) and high voltage (120-volt AC)
electrical systems. Because the wiring and
circuitry is a dedicated system specific to your
motorhome, we recommend you do not make
unauthorized changes or add fixed appliances
yourself. Only a qualified electrical dealer
technician should attempt to make changes or
additions to the electrical system. Approved
materials, components and methods of
installation must be used to meet safety and
code requirements.
Any changes or
additions made to your RV may result in a
hazardous condition.
To read more about the various components
incorporated into the RV electrical system,
please refer to the information contained in
your Owner's Portfolio. Consult the Chassis
Guide for information pertaining to the chassis
electrical system.
