SECTION 6 –
ELECTRICAL
6-2
The three-prong power cord is designed to
ground the electrical system through the
receptacle. It is also designed to carry the
amperage output of most campground outlets.
If the electrical receptacle to be used is
designed to mate with the three prongs on the
power cord plug, the electrical connection can be
expected to carry rated load.
Power Cord Door
(Models with power cord compartment on
sidewall)
–If Equipped
A flip-up passage in the power cord door lets
you route the power cord out of the compartment
and close the door while the power cord is
connected.
After disconnecting the power cord, neatly
replace it in the cord compartment.
NOTE: Always keep compartment door and
access passage closed while shoreline
cord is not in use.
Park Fuses or Breakers
Most campgrounds are equipped with a fuse
or circuit breaker at the receptacle. This protects
the park’s wiring, as well as the power cord on
your vehicle from electrical damage. If electrical
power fails, contact the park attendant and have
them check the fuse or breaker for your supply
receptacle.
POWER CENTER
(Converter)
The power converter is generally located in a
lower cabinet face in the galley or living area,
depending on the floorplan of your model.
The converter power panel contains the house
electrical system 120-volt circuit breakers and
12-volt fuses.
The power converter changes 120-volt AC
current from the auxiliary generator or the
shoreline into 12-volt DC current for use by 12-
volt equipment in the motor home.
