SECTION 6-ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS JAYCO TOWABLE
The Electrical System
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 RV, 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 RV electrical system,
please refer to the information contained in your Warranty Packet.
Electrical System Maintenance
Before working on the electrical system; always disconnect the shore power cord, turn off
the Battery Disconnect switch (if so equipped) and turn off the 120V main circuit breaker
(if so equipped). Then disconnect the negative 12VDC battery terminal from the battery.
(Refer to the sections on Battery Disconnect Switch & Load Center)
IN CASE OF AN ELECTRICAL FIRE
1. Have everyone evacuate the RV immediately.
2. Disconnect the power cord from the shore power receptacle.
3. Switch the 120-volt main circuit breaker (if so equipped) in the trailer to the “OFF”
position.
4. Disconnect the negative battery cable(s) at the battery.
5. Always have faulty or damaged wiring and electrical components repaired
immediately.
