TRC Shoreline Power Cord Reel Operation (Model: RH5)
This unit is designed with a clutch type
drive to allow direct engagement during
retract and clutch disengagement to
allow for free spooling during release.
These features are controlled using the
rocker switch assembly MH2021, RV2100,
or equivalent previously installed.
To correctly operate the unit, follow the
steps listed below. If the unit does not
perform according to the instructions below, first recheck
wiring for any issues
Cord Reels
This article provides an operational overview of the shore power cord reel and switch.
Cord reels (when equipped) provide the ease and convenience of storing the shore power electrical cord in a
neat and compact space with the assistance of motorized retraction. On coaches equipped with a power cord
reel, pull out the power cord, and plug it into an appropriately rated electrical outlet. Make sure the power source is providing
the correct voltage before plugging in the shore cord.
To store the cord, disconnect it from the power source outlet. Remove the cord from the pocket in the compartment, and press
and hold the momentary switch to retract and roll up the power cord as needed. The switch is typically located on the cord
reel or on the compartment door.
The energy management and auto generator start systems
work behind the scenes to monitor the power supply
and demand within the coach. The system is designed
to minimize the occurrence of tripped breakers for shore
power and the generator while heavy loads are being
used. The system turns off other loads temporarily while
heavier loads are in use and restores power when heavy
loads are turned back off.
Energy Management Systems
This article provides an overview of the energy management systems used by Newmar.
Whenever possible, connect coaches equipped with
50 amp shore power cord to 50 amp service, and
connect coaches with 30 amp shore power cords to 30
amp service accordingly. It is the best practice to avoid
using adapters and cheater cord devices.
NOTICE
!
On coaches built on a Ford chassis, batteries are normally
located in the front of the coach and can be accessed by
opening the hood.
On diesel coaches, the house batteries are normally
located in one of the lower compartments. The chassis
batteries are normally on the passenger side in the rear
compartment on diesel pushers and under the driver’s
side cab on the front engine on Super C coaches.
Cord Operation
Use only approved applicable outlets. Cord connector has
a built-in Easy-T-Pull handle for easy disconnect.
User Maintenance
This unit does not have any user serviceable parts. The
user can perform periodic inspection of the cord to insure
it is still in usable condition. DO NOT use if the cord is
damaged.
When 50 amp service is available, no action is required;
however, 30 amp service (or less) requires setting the value
of incoming power to be selected.

Product(s): TRC 50 Amp 34’ Power Cord Reel w/Pigtail (Model:
RH54331RM, Newmar Part Number: 132025)
Motor Operation
1. Ensure power is being supplied by the 12 VDC source.
2. Locate the switch installed. If using Southwire
switches, identify the label markings “RETRACT”
located at the top switch position and “RELEASE”
located at the bottom switch position.
3. To retract the cord back onto the reel, press and hold
the switch in the top “RETRACT” position until the
desired amount of cord is returned to the reel.
4. To release the cord from the reel, press the switch
MOMENTARILY in the bottom “RELEASE” position.
This unlocks the spool and allows for the cord to be
manually pulled to a desired length. DO NOT attempt
to pull cord from the reel without first pressing the
switch momentarily in the bottom “RELEASE” position.
Only a MOMENTARY press of the switch in the
“RELEASE” position will be needed. DO NOT attempt
to continuously hold the “RELEASE” switch position,
doing so will cause the cord to unravel on the spool.
