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
ff
other loads temporarily while
heavier loads are in use and restores power when heavy
loads are turned back o
ff
.
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.
Energy Management Systems
This article provides an overview of the energy management systems used by Newmar.
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.

Product(s): TRC 50 Amp 34’ Power Cord Reel w/Pigtail (Model:
RH54331RM, Newmar Part Number: 132025)
Motor Operation
1. Ensure power is being supplied by the 12 VDC
source.
2. Locate the switch installed. If using Southwire
switches, identify the label markings “RETRACT”
located at the top switch position and “RELEASE”
located at the bottom switch position.
3. To retract the cord back onto the reel, press and hold
the switch in the top “RETRACT” position until the
desired amount of cord is returned to the reel.
4. To release the cord from the reel, press the switch
MOMENTARILY in the bottom “RELEASE” position.
This unlocks the spool and allows for the cord to be
manually pulled to a desired length. DO NOT attempt
to pull cord from the reel without first pressing the
switch momentarily in the bottom “RELEASE” position.
Only a MOMENTARY press of the switch in the
“RELEASE” position will be needed. DO NOT attempt
to continuously hold the “RELEASE” switch position,
doing so will cause the cord to unravel on the spool.
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.
