ELECTRICAL FEATURES CONTINUED
GENERAL INFORMATION CONTINUED
The standard, flexible power cord supplied with the Wayfarer is designed to handle 30AMPS
(Amperes). Make sure that the pins in the male end of the plug are oriented correctly so they
match the power cable and they are in good condition (i.e., aren't bent or damaged).
If there is a circuit breaker switch at the "plug" end of the power cord (Next to the receptacle),
that breaker should be turned "OFF" before making the connection (Figure 70.1). Insert the
plug into the mating outlet and then turn the circuit breaker "ON".
Close and lock the electrical compartment door to protect the contents and keep them dry.
Closing the compartment door also protects your electrical system from being tampered with
while away from your motorhome. Close the cover on the power box, if so equipped, to avoid
any unintentional disconnection and to keep the contents clean and dry.
Next, switch the main breaker inside your motorhome to the "ON" position so that the
appliances and outlets in your coach receive the 120V VAC electricity needed for use
(Figure 73.2).
NOTE: Do not attempt to use any electrical adapters to convert the provided
30AMP power cord, as this will damage electrical components inside of the
motorhome.
