It is strongly recommended to avoid the use of extension cords. If an extension cord is
used, it MUST be the same amperage rating as the RV power cord. Using an improper
extension cord will cause overheating of the cord and equipment as well as possibly
causing premature failure of the AC equipment.
WARNING:
Do not use an adapter, cheater or extension cord that will break
the continuity of the grounding circuit connected to the third pin. NEVER
remove the grounding pin to connect a non-grounded, two-prong receptacle. Any
deviation from this will potentially cause a fire from overheating.
Circuit Breakers and Box
On a 30-amp system, up to 5 circuits are permitted to distribute power through the travel
trailer. All breakers are sized according to power to be consumed.
WARNING:
Do not replace breakers or fuses with any that are rated at a
higher amperage. Over fusing may cause a fire by over heating the wire.
G.F.C.I.
Each unit contains a Ground Fault Current Interrupter (G.F.C.I.) outlet. This special
breaker has been designed to reduce the possible injury caused by electrical shock.
An example of ground fault current is the current which would flow through a person
who is using or touching an appliance with faulty insulation and, at the same time, is in
contact with an electrical ground such as a plumbing fixture, wet floor, or earth.
This G.F.C.I. receptacle will not protect against short circuits or overloads. The circuit
breaker or fuse in the electrical panel which supplies power to the circuit provides this
protection.
When the G.F.C.I. receptacle is tripped, it has interrupted ground fault current caused by
such things as faulty insulation or wet wiring inside some appliance or equipment
connected to the circuit. The faulty equipment should be repaired before it is used again.
This special receptacle should be tested monthly while the camper is being used. See the
manufacturer’s owner’s manual for more instructions.
TESTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Plug a lamp or radio into the receptacle on the face of the GFCI.
2. Push and release the RESET button.
3. The lamp should light at this time.
4. Press the TEST button.
5. RESET button should pop out indicating “Trip” and the lamp should go out. (If the
GFCI is manufactured with an indicator light, the light should glow when the device
has tripped.)
6. If the GFCI did not trip, do not use. Call a qualified electrician to service or replace
the receptacle. The ground fault protection is no longer working and the GFCI may
not be working properly.
7. To restore power after tripping, press in the RESET button. It must remain in. (If an
indicator light is furnished, it will be off.)
