30-amp Service

On a 30-amp system, up to 5 circuits are permitted to distribute power through the sport utility
trailer. All breakers are sized according to power to be consumed.

WARNING: Do not replace breakers or fuses with any that are rated at a higher
amperage. Over fusing may cause a fire by over heating the wire.
Below is a generic drawing with circuit breaker alignment. Your sport utility trailer may not be
exactly the same as shown depending on model, floor plan, and options.

Consumption of 120-volt AC Power

As owners desire and purchase more appliances as we have in our home, we must remember a sport
utility trailer has only 30-amps of incoming power available. Conserving and choosing which
appliance has priority in consumption needs to be part of planning.
In addition, loose items such as toasters, skillets, coffee pots, etc. are often included in traveling
cargo. Include these in your consumption planning.

12-Volt DC System

The 12-volt DC system is composed of numerous items such as converter, battery, fuses, wire, and
bulbs, both interior and exterior lighting. Explanation on these items will follow in this section.

CAUTION: For the breakaway switch to be operational, an auxiliary battery needs to be
installed. Consult with your dealer to purchase the battery and have it installed.
