The motorhome 120/240 Volt AC system can be operated from three
different power sources. Shore power is the most efficient and should be used
whenever possible. The on board generator has a limited amount of 120 Volts
AC output power. This can be used when shore power is unavailable. The
inverter/converter supplies silent AC power by the use of the motorhome’s
house batteries. This source has limited AC power output and should be used
sparingly.
The motorhome 120 Volt AC circuit breaker panel is supplied with power
from two different sources: 50 amp shore power cord or the on board
generator. The selection of the power source being used is done automatically
by the use of an automatic electrical switching device known as a transfer
switch.

The power requirement for the motorhome is 50 AMP 120/240 Volt AC
single phase. If 50 amp shore power service is available, connect the
motorhome to the 50 amp shore power source using the supplied shore power
cord. One end of the shore power cord plugs into the 50 amp shore power
source and the other plugs into the motorhome receptacle. The motorhome 50
amp shore power receptacle is located on the left side of the motorhome in the
utility center.

One end of the cable master will be wired directly to the transfer switch.
Once you locate the power cord reel you will notice a power switch labeled IN
and OUT . This switch operates the 12 Volt DC motor.
Shore Power Connection:
Connect to motorhome first, then shore power.
Shore Power Disconnect:
Disconnect from shore power first, then motorhome.
WARNING: Failure to connect shore power in this sequence
presents a significant shock hazard. Follow this sequence
exactly. This also applies to disconnecting from shore power.
WARNING: Before plugging unit into shore power, starting
the generator or using the inverter, make sure all the
appliances are off.
When only a short section of the shore power cable is frequently used the
cable may coil sharper than normal, causing kinking of the cable. To relieve
this condition, routinely lay the cable out completely and stretch it on the
ground. It is very important to make sure the cable remains clean. Dust and dirt
on the cable may cause the system not to retract. Allow the cable master to
retract the cable into the the motorhome.
At least once a year, check all AC and DC wiring connections to be sure
they are secure and free of corrosion. Check the neoprene covers on the in-
limit switch and the power switch to be sure they are free of cracks or fracture.
