NOTE: Your coach may be equipped with a
residential-style refrigerator, which will
only operate on 120-volt AC. The
residential refrigerator requires either
the shoreline to be plugged in, the
generator running, or inverter power.
When the residential refrigerator is
operating from inverter power, special
care should be taken to ensure adequate
power is available from the house
batteries and condition of the batteries
should be monitored periodically. The
inverter is not intended to power devices
for long periods of time.
Further Information
See the inverter/charger manufacturer’s user
guide provided in your InfoCase for complete
instructions and charging setup directions.
CIRCUIT BREAKERS – HOUSE
120-VOLT AC
The breaker panel protects 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.
NOTE: Typical view of breaker panel. Breaker
arrangement may vary according to
appliance and equipment options. Fuses
and breakers are labeled on panel.
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 on the
outside on an exterior sidewall.
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
Inverter/charger disconnect switch.
