Power Center
Your motorhome is equipped with a power center that includes 120-volt breakers, 12-volt
fuses, and battery charging capability. Your motorhome is also equipped with a transfer
switch that automatically switches between generator power and external power.
AC Distribution Center
When 120-volt AC is connected to power center through commercial power or AC
generator, the 120-volt AC circuits are protected by the breakers contained in the AC
panel board. 120-volt AC circuits may be turned off by flipping breaker to indicate
“OFF.” The circuits may be turned on or reset by flipping breaker to indicate “ON.”
GFCI
Each motorhome has a Ground Fault Current Interrupter (GFCI) breaker built into the
unit. This breaker has been designed to reduce the possible injury caused by electric
shock.
An example of ground fault current is the current which would flow through a person
who is using or touching an appliance with faulty insulation and, at the same time, is in
contact with an electrical ground such as a plumbing fixture, wet floor or earth.
This GFCI breaker will not protect against short circuits or overloads. The circuit breaker
or fuse in the electrical panel, which supplies power to the circuit, provides this
protection.
When the GFCI breaker is tripped, it has interrupted ground fault current caused by such
things as faulty insulation or wet wiring inside an appliance or equipment connected to
the circuit. The faulty equipment should be repaired before it is used again.
This breaker should be tested monthly while the camper is being used. See the
manufacturer’s owner’s manual for more instructions.
Consumption of 120-Volt Energy
As owners desire and purchase more convenience appliances, remember that your
motorhome has a maximum of 30 amps of incoming power. Keep in mind that each
appliance, when used in conjunction with each other, places an added draw on your
30-amp system. You may periodically trip a circuit breaker if you exceed the 30-amp
capabilities.
Increasing the size of your circuit breakers to accommodate additional appliances is
NOT
an option.
WARNING:
Do not replace breakers or fuses with any rated at a higher
amperage. Over fusing may cause a fire by over heating the wire.
