Testing The Campsite Power Connection
Campsite 120-volt power receptacles can be tested using a digital multimeter or a dedicated
circuit analyzer. Dedicated circuit analyzers plug directly into the campsite power recep-
tacle and minimally test for open neutral, open ground, and correct polarity.
plug the shore power cord into a campsite receptacle(s):
That has reverse polarity
With non-functioning ground circuits
That shows outward signs of heat damage.
. Plugging the
shore power cord into an incorrectly wired power source could damage the
recreation vehicle electrical system and result in severe or fatal injury. Dam-
age or injury resulting from connection to malfunctioning or improperly wired
power sources is not covered by your recreation vehicle warranty.
Do not use any cheater plug, adapter or extension cord to recongure
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 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 recep-
tacle. 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.
The power cord must be fully extended when in use and not left coiled
in the electrical compartment or on the ground. A power cord left coiled
may potentially create enough heat to melt its protective casing.
It is the responsibility of the owner of the electrical receptacle to ensure that
the receptacle is properly wired and grounded.
and 30A service. The status window illuminates each of the appliances that it controls. If
the indicator is not lit, that means the PCS system has temporarily removed power to prevent
the circuit breaker from tripping.
The system has the ability to turn o the following electrical items:
Electric Water Heater.
The (3) air conditioner systems (front, rear, and mid coach).
