10.1.2 POWER CONTROL CENTER
This panel contains the fuses for the 12 volt system, circuit breakers for the 120 volt system and the converter that changes
120 volt power into 12 volt AC. Each system handles dierent circuits in the motorhome.
Refer to Converter and control panel Manuals in the Owner's Information Package for more information.
10.1.3
120 VOLT CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The breaker panel protects all 120-volt equipment and components in the motorhome from overload, from a short in the
wiring or a short in the component itself. This cuts o the ow of electricity in the system and prevents damage or re.
If a breaker “trips”, allow a brief “cool down” period and then reset the breaker by turning it 'o' and then 'on' again. If a
breaker “trips” again and again, this could mean that there is a short in the wiring or in the equipment and both should be
checked and serviced.
There is a single 30 Amp main breaker which protects the entire electrical system. This breaker should be checked rst if
the entire electrical system will not function on shore power.
10.1.4 GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (GFCI)
Various outlets in the motorhome, particularly those near sinks and water supplies, are connected to a GFCI which is a very
sensitive circuit breaker that will protect you from electrical shock if a severe ground fault develops. If and when this breaker
trips, unplug all appliances on that circuit and press the reset button on the outlet. If the GFCI keeps tripping check and
repair the electrical system before using it again. Depending on the oor plan in your vehicle, you will nd a GFCI outlet in
the bathroom and outside receptacle.
GFCI OUTLET (TYPICAL)
The GFCI will not eliminate completely all electric
shock. Small children or persons with a heart con-
dition should be extra cautious and could still be
injured even though protected by a Ground Fault
Interrupter.
