6-1
The RV electrical system is comprised of two independent electrical systems. One
operates off of 12-volt DC power and the other off of 120-volt 60hz AC power. All
installations have been made in compliance with industry standards applicable on
the date of manufacture. Because the electrical equipment and associated
circuitry are engineered into a dedicated system specific to your motor home, we
recommend you do not make unauthorized changes or add fixed appliances to it.
Changes or additions made after delivery may result in a hazardous
condition.
Service and/or modification of the electrical system should only be performed by
qualified electrical technicians using approved materials, components, and
methods meeting current safety and code requirements. Please consult your
dealer’s service department for assistance.
To read more about the various components incorporated into the motor home
electrical system, please refer to the information contained in your Warranty
Packet. Consult the Chassis Guide for information pertaining to the chassis
drivetrain electrical system.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
Always disconnect the shore power cord, turn “off” the inverter, and the generator,
disable automatic generator start functionality, and disconnect the negative 12-volt
DC battery terminal before working on the electrical system. Always make sure the
battery disconnect solenoid, power converter, and inverter (if so equipped) are
turned “off” before disconnecting the house batteries.
IN CASE OF AN ELECTRICAL FIRE
1. Have everyone evacuate the motor home immediately.
2. Switch the 120-volt main circuit breaker in the motor home to the “off”
position.
3. Disconnect the negative battery cable(s) at the battery.
4. Disconnect the power cord from the shore power receptacle.
5. Turn “off” the generator.
6. Always have faulty or damaged wiring and electrical components repaired
immediately.
