SECTION 6 - ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
120- AC S
VOLT YSTEM
Make certain the external power source you connect the power cord to is a
properly wired 30 amp NEMA TT-30 RV receptacle and not 240 volt AC.
Your motor home is equipped with a 30 amp 120-volt 60hz AC electrical system.
The entire system is designed to operate on 1 leg of 120-volt power at a maximum
current flow of 30 amperes. Exposure to voltages higher or lower than a nominal
120-volts will damage or shorten the service life of the electrical system and
appliances. The 30 amp 120-volt 60hz AC electrical system can be powered by
the 120-volt 60hz utilities found in RV campgrounds or by 120-volt 60hz generator
power.
The following electrical components will only operate when your motorhome is
connected to shore or generator power: 120 to 12-volt power converter, air
conditioner, refrigerator, microwave oven, television(s), home theater system(s),
electric water heater, washer, dryer, fireplace, and appliances plugged into
convenience receptacles.

The 30 amp power cord is also commonly referred to as the "shore power cord."
This power cord is designed to ground the motor home electrical system through
the external power source receptacle. It is also designed to carry the voltage and
current output from 30 amp campground power receptacles.
PLUG INTO 30-AMP SERVICE ONLY.

Do not hook up the 30-amp power cord to any receptacle until you have
verified proper polarity and grounding. Polarity indicators can be
purchased in most electrical and hardware stores.

Do not use any cheater plug, adapter or extension cord to reconfigure
incoming AC power or break the continuity of the circuit connected to the
grounding pin.

Do not connect the power cord into an outlet that is not grounded, or
adapt the 30 amp power cord plug to connect it to a receptacle for which
it is not designed.

Do not remove the grounding pin to connect to a non-grounded
receptacle. Removal of the ground pin disables an important safety
feature designed to prevent shock and electrocution hazards.

Do not connect the power cord to an extension cord. Use of an improper
extension cord will cause overheating of the cord as well as potentially
causing premature failure of the AC equipment.
It is the responsibility of the owner of the electrical receptacle to ensure that
the receptacle is properly wired and grounded. Reverse polarity and/or
improper grounding of your
