4.21 ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

(EMS) OPTIONAL

This system prioritizes and distributes the power from

the shoreline or generator to the appliances or other

120 V users. This system disconnects selected “post-

pone-able” power draws to eliminate or minimize the

tripping of circuit breakers. The selected power draws

are automatically turned back on when the higher

priority power requirement is over.

The control panel is located above the coach en-

try doorway and the monitoring microprocessor is

mounted in the electrical AC breaker box. No setting

or adjusting by operator is required.

Normally the postpone-able power draws are the air

conditioner, washer/dryer and electric water heater.

Each will be shut down as other demands increase.

Refer to the booklet in the information package for

more details.
