ELECTRICAL
The energy management and auto generator start systems
work behind the scenes to monitor the power supply
and demand within the coach. The system is designed
to minimize the occurrence of tripped breakers for shore
power and the generator while heavy loads are being
used. The system turns o

other loads temporarily while
heavier loads are in use and restores power when heavy
loads are turned back o

Energy Management Systems
This article provides an overview of the energy management systems used by Newmar.
When 50 amp service is available, no action is required;
however, 30 amp service (or less) requires setting the value
of incoming power to be selected.
Auto generator features may vary by coach model and
options. Most AGS systems start the generator if shore
power is unavailable and the HVAC system signals for
air conditioner operation. Many systems will also start
automatically if battery levels reach the preset values.
For more information about the energy management
system, refer to the SilverLeaf Coach Management or
Precision Circuits Power Control System documentation
found in Newgle, depending on which system is installed
in the coach.
Whenever possible, connect coaches equipped with
50 amp shore power cord to 50 amp service, and
connect coaches with 30 amp shore power cords to 30
amp service accordingly. It is the best practice to avoid
using adapters and cheater cord devices.

Fuse Panels On Coaches Built On A Spartan Or
Freightliner Chassis
Inside The Coach
On a diesel pusher coach, the house fuse panel, which
controls most of the components and appliances inside
the coach, is located in the bathroom, in the front overhead
next to the 120 volt breaker panel, or in the rear wardrobe.
This panel contains fuses and breakers that are connected
to the main appliances in the coach, from the refrigerator
and television to the lights in the bedroom and slideouts.
There are also some external components that are fused
in the house fuse panel. For example, the fuses for the
water pump, water heater, security lights, and basement
storage lights may be located in this panel.
