CIRCUIT BREAKERS AND FUSES
Like your home, the 120-VAC circuits in the RV are protected by
circuit breakers and fuses.
These are the same as circuit breakers used in your house electrical
system. The circuits are listed on the inside of the fuse panel door. If a
short circuit or an overload happens on the circuit, the circuit breaker
will trip and interrupt the current flow.
If a fuse blows, first turn off the affected appliance or appliances check
the fuse panel to see which fuse was affected and replace it. Be sure use
you replace the blown fuse with one of the same amperage rating. If the
fuse continues to blow, contact your dealer or a service facility for an
inspection
.
Never replace a fuse with circuit breakers or fuses with a higher amperage than
originally installed. Over-fusing may cause the circuit wires to get hot and start a fire.
