Section 6: Electrical System
Generator
Your motor home is equipped with an LP or a fuel powered generator. The generator pro-
duces 120/240-volt power compatible with the motor home electrical system. It can power
the entire motor home when 120/240-volt shore power is not available.
Before Starting the Generator
1.
Make sure the carbon monoxide detector is working.
2.
Turn off air conditioners and all other 120-volt appliances.
3.
Check for fuel, exhaust and coolant leaks.
STOP the generator immediately if there is a fuel, exhaust or coolant leak. Have all
leaks repaired prior to placing the generator back in service.
CARBON MONOXIDE IS DEADLY! Do not run the generator when
your motor home is indoors or in a confined space.
DO NOT use the AGS AUTO ON or QUIET ON modes (if so equipped)
when your motor home is indoors or in a confined space.
Asphyxiation or carbon monoxide poisoning hazards exist whenever genera-
tor exhaust gasses can accumulate.
MOVING PARTS AND ELECTRICITY
can cause severe personal injury
or death. To reduce exposure to these hazards,
always disable AGS (if so
equipped) before:
Sleeping in vehicle, unless vehicle has a working CARBON MONOX-
IDE detector.
Parking vehicle in garage or confined space.
Parking vehicle for storage.
Servicing vehicle for storage.
Servicing generator.
Servicing batteries.
Servicing appliances or electrical systems.
Fueling the vehicle.
Always test the external power source (i.e., the campsite power receptacle or electrical box)
with a ground monitor before connecting your power cord to it. If the ground monitor indi-
cates ‘reverse polarity’ or an ‘open ground’
DO NOT
connect the power cord.
Regularly inspect the shore power cord for cuts, cracks, worn insulation and other damage.
Have the power cord replaced immediately if problems exist.
Calculating 30-amp Electrical Load
When connecting appliances to the electrical system, 120-volt power usage is limited to a
total of 30-amps. Operating appliances collectively places an added load on your 120-volt
electrical system.
A circuit breaker “trip” may occur if you overload the recreation vehicle and/or campground
electrical system. The amperage rating of individual appliances can be calculated by divid-
ing appliance wattage consumed (normally listed on the appliance) by nominal design volt-
age (120 for a 120-volt appliance). For example: 1200 watts divided by 120-volts equals 10
amps.
