ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
General
The electrical system in the recreation vehicle is composed of 120-volt AC (alternating
current) and 12-volt DC (direct current) capabilities. All installations are made in
compliance with safety requirements of ANSI standard A.1192 National Electric Code,
Canadian Standards Association, NFFA-70.
Wiring code for 120-volt AC system is:
Black
=
Hot or positive
White
=
Neutral or negative
Green/Bare
=
Ground
Changes, Modifications and Additions
Any changes or additions made to a finished and delivered motorhome may cause a
hazardous condition. Consult your local authorized dealer. Only qualified electrical
technicians should attempt to make changes or additions to the electrical system, using
only approved materials, components and employing approved methods of installation,
which meet safety and code requirements, as well as ANSI A119.2 standards.
120-Volt AC System
Your mini-motorhome is equipped with a 30-Amp power cord pre-wired into the power
center. By opening the cable hatch or utility center door you can pull the power cord out
from the compartment and attach it to a commercial power source. The power cord
extends approximately twenty to twenty-three feet from motorhome. Power flows through
the 30-amp main circuit breaker and is then distributed through branch circuit breakers to
wall receptacles and appliances.
To prevent accidental electrical shock, insure that the ground pin on the attachment plug
cap is grounded through the RV park receptacle. When plugged into a receptacle with no
provision for the third pin, use an adapter with a pigtail that can be connected to the
receptacle box, with the grounding circuit completed through the ground pin or RV park
receptacle box. Any accidental short of a live circuit conductor will trip the circuit
breaker indicating a shorted circuit. Be certain that the polarity of the external power is
not reversed in order to avoid harm to appliances and personal electrical shock. Polarity
indicators may be purchased in most electrical and hardware stores.
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. NEVER remove the grounding
pin to connect a non-grounded, two-prong receptacle. Any deviation from this
will potentially cause a fire from overheating.
