Circuit Breakers And Box - venture SPORT TREK Owner's Manual

DO NOT leave any unused portion of an extension cord in a "coil" as it
may overheat, short-circuit wires and potentially destroy your extension
cord. Keep extension cords short.
Never use a "cheater" plug or extension cord. It breaks the
continuity of the ground circuit to the grounding pin.
DO NOT replace circuit breakers or fuses with a higher current
rating than those supplied with your coach. Over-fusing can
cause a fire hazard by overheating the electrical wiring.
Circuit Breakers and Box—120-volt AC
On a 30 amp system, a maximum of six 120-volt AC distribution circuits
are permitted. All breakers are sized according to power needs on each line.
The following generic drawing shows the circuit breaker alignment with
number one being 30 amp on the main breaker on all floor plans.
Depending on the size, floor plan and options of your coach, circuit three
through six will vary and possibly not all circuits will be used. Number two
is generally the 20 amp air conditioner circuit.
An owner must realize and understand that a coach has a total of 30 amp
service available to be used. Conserving and choosing which appliance
has priority in consumption needs to be part of the planning.
Don't forget loose items such as toasters, electric skillets, and coffee pots
also consume power. Include these also in your planning.
DO NOT connect 240-volt direct power to the coach through a
reducing adapter. By doing so, "positive" power will be sent
through neutral/white wire damaging appliances.
NEVER, under any circumstances, remove a grounding pin in
any cord or plug. It may mean the difference between LIFE
and DEATH.
