Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
Most states require trailers with exterior 120-volt
receptacles and receptacles close to a water sources,
such as a faucet, to have a ground fault-circuit
interrupter� When properly installed, the GFCI circuit
breaker provides reliable overload and short-circuit
protection, plus protection from ground faults that might
result from contact with a HOT load wire and ground�
The GFCI circuit breaker will NOT reduce shock
hazard if contact is made between a HOT load wire
and a neutral wire or 2 HOT load wires.
Each GFCI circuit breaker is calibrated to trip with a
ground current of 5 milliamperes or more� Since most
persons can feel as little as 2 milliamperes, a distinct
shock may be felt if the need for protection exists�
However, the shock should be of such short duration
that the effects would be reduced to less than the
normally dangerous level� However, persons with acute
heart problems or other conditions that can make a
person particularly susceptible to electric shock may
still be seriously injured�
While the GFCI circuit breaker affords a high degree of
protection, there is no substitute for the knowledge that
electricity can be dangerous when carelessly handled
or used without reasonable caution�
The GFCI circuit breaker provides protection only
to the circuit to which it is connected. It does NOT
provide protection to any other circuit.

GFCI Breaker Test
A
B
GFCI(s) are proven lifesavers, however, consumers
need to take a few minutes each month to perform this
simple test� By taking action, you can help protect your
family from the risk of electric shock�
1� With handle A in "ON" position, press PUSH TO
TEST button B�
2� Handle A should move to TRIP position, indicating
that GFCI breaker has opened the circuit�
3� To restore power move handle A to "OFF" and then
to "ON"
NOTE
All GFCI breakers implement an auto self-test
function, however, Airstream recommends a
manual test be conducted every month.
