SECTION 6

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM - 50 AMP

our park trailer

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 park trailer,
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 park trailer may create a hazardous
condition.

RECAUTIONS

Careless handling of electrical components
can be fatal. Always take the appropriate
safety precautions when working around the
park trailer electrical system.

□

Use caution when using metal tools

around the park trailer electrical system. If
a tool contacts a battery terminal or metal
connected to it, a short circuit could occur
which could cause personal injury,
explosion or fire.

□

Remove your rings, metal watchbands

and any other metal jewelry before
working around the park trailer electrical
system.

□

Never touch or use electrical components

with bare feet, wet hands or while
standing in water or on wet ground.

□

NEVER

allow children to play with the

electrical system or components.

Always make sure the electrical components
are turned OFF before disconnecting the
auxiliary battery (customer supplied). Always
disconnect the power cord and auxiliary
battery negative cable from the battery before
working around the park trailer electrical
systems.

1. Execute your family safety plan.

2. After everyone is clear and accounted for,

if possible:

a. Disconnect the shore line power cord

from the external power source.

b. Disconnect the auxiliary battery cables

(if applicable).

c. Turn OFF the generator (if applicable).

3. Check the fire to see if you can attempt to

put it out with the fire extinguisher. If there
is any doubt, call the local Fire
Department for emergency assistance.

4. Do not touch any electrical wires or

appliances.

If you feel the fire was caused by a product
failure you must contact Jayco Customer
Service for approval before you clean any
debris, enter, move or repair the park trailer
(failure to notify Jayco may result in loss of
coverage).

Always have faulty or damaged wiring and
electrical components repaired before using
your park trailer again.

240/120-

VOLT

YSTEM

Your park trailer is equipped with a 240/120-
volt AC / 50-amp power cord and load center.
A maximum of 50-amps (or 6000 watts) of
power can be consumed at any given time. It
may be necessary to stagger usage of some
appliances to maintain your power usage at
50-amps or lower. The 120-volt AC system
provides power to most of the appliances and
all of the electrical outlets.

Do not

attempt to use water to put out an

electrical fire. Water can spread some
types of fire, and electrocution is possible
with an electrical fire.
