ELECTRICS
2.6 Operation while driving
The EC500 system is designed to shutdown
parts of the system whilst the engine is
running. This is to meet Electro Magnetic
Compatibility (EMC) regulations and to
ensure the safe operation of the system.
Please ensure the system shutdown switch
on the PSU is in the “on” (button in) position
before driving (see 2.2). This will ensure the
electronic system is active and will therefore
be able to control the charging process,
supply the refrigerator and monitor other
system circuits.
If you hear a warning buzzer when the
engine is started, please see the control
panel display for details and also refer to
section 3.8.

System Technical Information
The following section provides further
technical information relating to the electrical
system.
3.1 Residual Current Device & Miniature
Circuit Breakers
The Residual Current Device (RCD) is
basically provided to protect the user from
lethal electric shock. The RCD will turn off
(trip) if the current flowing in the live
conductor does not fully return down the
neutral conductor, i.e. some current is
passing through a person down to earth or
through a faulty appliance.
To ensure the RCD is working correctly, the test
button should be operated each time the vehicle
is connected to the mains supply (see section
2.3)
MCB

10 Amps
230v Sockets (white)
2

Combination water heater / central heating system (yellow)
Extra 230V sockets (white)
3
10 Amps

The following table shows the rating and circuit allocation for the three MCB’s
The Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCB’s) operate
in a similar way to traditional fuses and are
provided to protect the wiring installation from
overload or short circuit. If an overload occurs
the MCB will switch off the supply. If this occurs
you should investigate the cause of the fault
before switching the MCB back on.
