CLASS C MOTOR HOME SECTION 6 – 30 AMP ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
6-3 GH/M
Circuit breakers are wearable parts and must be replaced as needed, as part of
your motor home maintenance. If you have any questions, consult your dealer.
Please contact your dealer for repair assistance when replacing circuit breakers.
30 AMP POWER CORD
The 30 amp power cord is also commonly referred to as the “shore power cord.”
This power cord is designed to ground the motor home electrical system through
the external power source receptacle. It is also designed to carry the voltage and
current output from 30 amp campground power receptacles.
WARNING
Plugging the shoreline power cord into an incorrectly wired power source
could damage the motor home electrical system and result in severe or fatal
injury.
WARNING
PLUG INTO 30-AMP SERVICE ONLY.
Do not hook up the 30-amp power cord to any receptacle until you have
verified proper polarity and grounding. Polarity indicators can be
purchased in most electrical and hardware stores.
Do not use any cheater plug, adapter or extension cord to reconfigure
incoming AC power or break the continuity of the circuit connected to the
grounding pin.
Do not connect the power cord into an outlet that is not grounded, or
adapt the 30 amp power cord plug to connect it to a receptacle for which
it is not designed.
Do not remove the grounding pin to connect to a non-grounded
receptacle. Removal of the ground pin disables an important safety
feature designed to prevent shock and electrocution hazards.
Do not connect the power cord to an extension cord. Use of an improper
extension cord will cause overheating of the cord as well as potentially
causing premature failure of the AC equipment.
It is the responsibility of the owner of the electrical receptacle to ensure that
the receptacle is properly wired and grounded. Reverse polarity and/or
improper grounding of your
RV can cause personal injury or death.
WARNING
Replacement circuit breakers must be of the same voltage, amperage rating
and type. Never use a higher rated replacement circuit breaker; doing so may
cause a fire b
