ELECTRICAL
CIRCUIT BREAKERS – HOUSE
120-VOLT AC
The breaker panels protect all 120-volt
components in the motorhome from either an
overload on the circuit or a short in the wiring or
component itself. When an overload or short
develops, the breaker will open preventing
damage to the system.
Shut off the equipment (example: roof air
conditioner) and allow a brief cooling period.
Then reset the breaker by moving the switch to
“Off” and back to “On”. If the breaker is
continually tripped and no overload is evident,
have the system checked for a short in the wiring
or the appliances.
The breaker panels are located:
•
N34N and N36K-behind a compartment door
on the passengers side 3rd door rearward.
•
N40P- Behind a compartment door on the
passengers side 4th door rearward.
NOTE: Breakers are labeled on panel.
Arrangement may vary according to
appliance and equipment options.
ELECTRICAL OUTLETS –
HOUSE 120-VOLT AC
A number of standard household electrical
outlets are provided throughout the motorhome
for connecting small appliances such as
televisions, radios, toasters, etc.
An exterior outlet is also located in the rear
storage compartment on the passenger side of the
motorhome.
GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT
INTERRUPTER
Bath, galley, and exterior outlets are
connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter), which is an extremely sensitive
circuit breaker that will help to protect against
severe electrical shock if a ground fault develops.
If such a condition occurs, the GFCI will break
the circuit by turning off the power to the
protected outlets. Should this occur, unplug all
the appliances on that circuit and press the reset
button on the GFCI equipped outlet.
If the GFCI keeps tripping, have the electrical
system checked and repaired, if necessary, before
using again.
