Introduction
The electrical system in your Prolite trailer is a combination of 12-volt DC current and
120-volt AC current. Each facet of the electrical system has been carefully installed to
meet quality approved (QAI) standards. To explain the difference between the two
electrical systems, 12 volts is what an automobile uses and 120 volts is the current
used in your home.
The 12-volt systemcan operate in three different ways.
- The trailer battery (not supplied withyourProlite trailer)
- The transformer that converts 120-volt AC to 12-volt DC
- The 12-volt current from the towing vehicle
The 120-volt systemis activated by connecting an electrical cable to an external source that
supplies 120-volt AC current for trailer accessories or equipment requiring this type of
electricity, such as the air conditioner, microwave, and 120-volt (home-type) electrical
outlets.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Disconnect all electrical power (120 volts AC and 12 volts DC) before
working on the electrical systems. The 120-volt feed is disconnected
directly from the electrical outlet, while the 12-volt feed is disconnected
by removing the cable from the positive terminal of the battery.
Ensure that all accessories have been turned off, to avoid causing
sparks. Failure to follow this procedure might cause fire or injur y.
