Section 6: Electrical System

4.
Insert a new fuse of the same specified voltage, amperage rating and type in the original
location.
The fuse panel label should be kept permanently affixed to your recreation vehicle. Fuses
will not offer complete protection of the electrical system in the event of a power surge or
spike.
Load Center
The motor home load center consists of 30A Main and 15-
20A breakers for all 120 Volt circuits in the unit. The 120V
main breaker may be located in this panel and will turn off
all 120-volt power to the RV. Locations will vary by mod-
el. Refer to the diagram inside the load center for specific
breaker assignments.
120-Volt Circuit Breakers
The 120-volt AC circuit breakers located inside the load center protect all 120-volt wiring
and components from circuit overloads and short circuits. Should a circuit overload or short
circuit occur the circuit breaker protecting the affected circuit will “trip” preventing the flow
of electricity through that circuit.
If a circuit breaker trips, shut off the appliance on that circuit and allow the circuit breaker to
cool down for a brief period of time. After it cools down, reset the circuit breaker by moving
its lever “off” and then back to the “on” position. If the circuit breaker re-trips or frequently
trips, contact your dealer to have the electrical problem diagnosed and repaired.
A circuit breaker identification label is permanently attached to the inside surface of the
120-volt Load Center.
Replacement
Only replace circuit breakers with those of the same specified type, voltage, and current rat
-
ing.
Never replace a circuit breaker with one listed at a higher amperage rating.
Please
contact your dealer for repair assistance when replacing circuit breakers.
Maintenance
At the beginning of the camping season, inspect the circuit breakers and replace as needed.
Test by turning each circuit breaker “off” and back “on”. Circuit breakers are wearable parts
and must be replaced as needed as part of your RV maintenance. If you have any questions,
contact your dealer.
Circuit breakers and fuses will not offer complete protection of the electrical
system in the event of power surge or voltage spike.
Replacement circuit breakers must be of the same voltage, amperage rating
and type. Never use a higher rated replacement circuit breaker; doing so may
cause a fire by overheating the RV wiring.
