ELECTRICAL
120-VOLT CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The 120-volt AC circuit breakers located inside the load center protect
all 120-volt wiring and components from circuit overloads and short
circuits. Should a circuit overload or short circuit occur the circuit
breaker protecting the affected circuit will “trip” preventing the flow of
electricity through that circuit.
If a circuit breaker trips, shut off the appliance on that circuit (i.e.,
power converter, etc.) and allow the circuit breaker to cool down for
a brief period of time. After it cools down, reset the circuit breaker by
moving its lever “off” and then back to the “on” position. If the circuit
breaker re-trips or frequently trips, contact your dealer to have the
electrical problem diagnosed and repaired.
Please contact your dealer for repair assistance when replacing circuit
breakers.
Maintenance
At the beginning of the camping season, inspect the circuit breakers
and replace as needed. Test by turning each circuit breaker “off”
and back “on”. Circuit breakers are wearable parts and must be
replaced as needed as part of your RV maintenance. If you have any
questions, contact your dealer.
A label is provided to explain the function of every 120-volt circuit
breaker. This label is located on or near the appropriate load center
or sub-panel and must remain permanently affixed to the recreation
vehicle.
