A 30 amp rated power cord is pre-wired into
your 120-volt AC breaker box. Open the
hatch door on the exterior of the coach. Pull
cord out and attach it to 120-volt power
source.
Some 30 or 50 amp power cords are
detachable from the connector as shown, to be
stored inside of your unit when not in use. This
cord places 120 AC volt power into your
breaker distribution center, as built into your
coach.
Energy will enter through the main breaker and is distributed through
circuit breakers to the wall receptacles and appliances. This power
cord will be approximately 26 to 28 feet in length. Each cord has the
correct gauge of wire to carry the correct voltage to coach.
In some hook-ups the power cord may not be
long enough and extension cords are required.
Always use a cord with the gauge of wire equal
to or greater then the power cord. Should you
use a cord with a smaller wire gauge,
overheating, loss of amperage, and possible
melting could occur.
DO NOT leave any unused portion of an
extension cord in a “coil” as it may overheat,
short-circuit wires and potentially destroy your
extension cord.
Circuit Breakers and Box
On a 30 amp system, a maximum of five distribution circuits are
permitted. All breakers are sized according to power needs on each
line.
Never use a “cheater” plug or extension cord which breaks the continuity of
the ground circuit to the grounding pin.
