SECTION 6
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM - 50 AMP

Y
our RV
contains separate low voltage (12-
volt DC) and high voltage (120-volt AC)
electrical systems. All installations have been
made in compliance with the safety
requirements of ANSI standard A.1192,
National Electric Code and Canadian
Standards Association Code. Because the
wiring and circuitry is engineered into a
dedicated system specific to your RV, we
recommend you do not make unauthorized
changes or add fixed appliances yourself.
Only a qualified RV technician should attempt
to make changes or additions to the electrical
system. Approved materials, components and
methods of installation must be used to meet
safety and code requirements.
Changes or
additions made to your RV may create a
hazardous condition.
