How The System Works
When you're plugged into shoreline power or start your generator, 120-volt
current is fed to an Automatic Switch Over Box. Power from the box runs to the
H
120-volt circuit breakers on the Precision Controls Smart Energy Management
Module. The module and box are explained more in depth later in this chapter
and are located under the rear lounge.
Circuit 3A can also be powered by the inverter part of the inverter/charger. See
circuit 3A function in the next section for information on which receptacles can
work on the inverter.
ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (EMS)
A complete, detailed EMS manual is included with your owner's packet.

Warning
The ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM is a
centralized power switching, fusing, and distribution center. Power from
the 120-volt power source is fed into the box. The potential of lethal
electrical shock is present in this box. Inadvertent shorts at this box
could result in damage and/or injury. All servicing of this box should be
done by a qualified Service Technician.
