A. Manual Reset Circuit Breaker

B. Auto Reset Circuit Breaker

C. Standard Fuse

D. Mini Fuse

E. Maxi Fuse

There are three types of Circuit Breakers:

 

Type 1

 is an automatic reset type circuit 

breaker. This type of breaker may cause 

component damage under a short circuit 

condition. It will not damage the circuit, the 

installation or present a safety risk

Type 2

 is an automatic reset type circuit 

breaker. Under a short circuit condition, this 

type of breaker will not cause component 

damage or damage to the circuit, the 

installation or present a safety risk.

Type 3

 is a manual reset 

circuit breaker. This type of 

breaker will open under a 

short circuit condition and 

must be manually reset. 

BATTERIEs - HOUsE

House batteries are designed for use with 12 

Volt DC operated lights and appliances. 

House Battery Types:

Liquid Lead Acid (LLA)

Deep Cycle Batteries:

Deep cycle batteries are a type of Liquid 

Lead Acid (LLA) battery. Deep cycle batteries 

are best suited for use with 12 Volt operated 

lights, appliances and inverter/converters. 

Deep cycle batteries are designed to have a 

majority of their capacity used before being 

recharged. House batteries are located in 

curbside battery compartment.

CAUTION

Tap water contains minerals which can 

alter battery chemistry and ruin the 

battery. Use only distilled water when 

refilling the LLA battery.

CAUTION

Many types of petroleum based  

products or battery by-products can 

damage the paint finish. DO NOT 

allow these types of chemicals to get 

on the paint finish. If the chemicals 

splatter on to the painted surfaces, 

immediately rinse the surface using 

plenty of water and a mild detergent. 

Battery Maintenance

Liquid Lead Acid (LLA)

 battery cells 

should be checked at least once a month. The 

level should be above the top of the plates but 

not overfull. The electrolyte level should be 

approximately 3/8" below the well to allow 

room for expansion while the battery is being 

charged. Over-filling the battery will allow the 

electrolyte solution to boil or gas out of the 

battery cap. Remember to use only distilled 

water to refill 

the battery. A 

battery with a 

low electrolyte 

level will 

rapidly boil 

out the water 

once the plates 

have been 

exposed to air. 

Periodically check the batteries for corrosion 

and cracks. Replace vent plugs that are cracked 

or missing. Keep the top of the batteries clean. 

The accumulation of electrolyte and dirt 

may permit small amounts of current to flow 

between the terminals which can drain the 

battery.

Check the battery connections for tightness 

and corrosion. If corrosion is found, disconnect 

the cables (mark cable locations) and carefully 

clean them with a mild solution of baking soda 

and water or an aerosol product specifically 

designed for battery maintenance. 

Do not

 

allow cleaning solution to seep into the battery 

and damage the electrolyte balance. Use water 

to rinse the top of the battery and surrounding 

area when done. Carefully hook the cables 

back to the battery. The battery cable to battery 

terminal connections should be metal to metal. 

Coat the terminals with petroleum jelly or an 

anti-corrosion grease.
