120-Volt Power

When you're plugged into shoreline power or starting
your generator, 120-volt current is fed to an Automatic
Switch Over Box� Power from the box runs to the
120-volt circuit breakers on the Energy Management
System
NOTE
Make sure to read, understand, and follow all
electrical component owner's manuals provided
in the owner's packet before operating the touring
coach. Observe all operating instructions and
Warnings as well as all recommended maintenance
schedules and procedures.

120-Volt Automatic Switch Over Box

The switch over box automatically switches the 120-
volt feed to the Energy Management System Module
from shoreline to generator and back as you choose
which way to power the touring coach� You simply
decide whether to plug into a 120-volt shoreline or
start the generator and the box will do the rest� If the
generator is accidentally started while plugged into
shoreline the box will sense the generator incoming
power, contact points inside the box will switch
cutting the shoreline connection, and establishing the
generator connection� This protects the system from a
possible overload from dual power sources�

1� When plugged into shoreline power, the current
path is from C to A�
2� When you start your generator, the points switch
and the power flow is from B to A. Stopping the
generator releases the points back to shoreline
feed�
3� If you're plugged into shoreline and you start the
generator, the points still switch since the generator
has the priority, so the current flow is still B to A.
