Page 239: Glossary
Glossary Glossary AC ELECTRICITY—Alternating current also known as shoreline power. For purposes of this manual, it refers to 120-volt AC (abbreviated 120 VAC). AMP—Short for ampere, the electric current unit of measure. RV sites with electric hookup will specify the maximum amps supported, which generally come in units of 20, 30, or 50 amps.
Page 240 12-volt DC (abbreviated 12 VDC). DEALER—For purposes of this manual, this refers to the independent dealer authorized to sell and/or service your camper by Grand Design RV. This term will be used in this context unless specified otherwise.
Page 241 Glossary DRY CAMPING—Camping when there is no city water hookup or shore power (i.e., using only the water and power available in the camper and not from any other source). DRY WEIGHT—The actual weight of a vehicle or trailer containing standard equipment with- out fuel, fluids, cargo, passengers, or optional equipment.
Page 242 Glossary GALLEY—The kitchen in an RV. GENERATOR—An engine powered device fueled by gasoline or diesel fuel, and sometimes propane, for generating 120-volt AC power. GENSET—Abbreviation for generator set. GOOSENECK—A trailer and hitch configuration connected to the tow truck directly above the rear axle by way of a standard ball hitch in the truck bed and a vertical, slender arm on front of the trailer.
Page 243 Glossary HITCH—The fastening unit that joins a movable vehicle to the vehicle that pulls it. HITCH WEIGHT—The amount of the camper’s weight that rests on the tow vehicle. It should be approximately 12 - 15% with conventional trailers; approximately 18 - 21% for fifth wheels. HOLDING TANKS—There are three different holding tanks on most RVs;...
Page 244 Glossary KING PIN—The pin by which a fifth wheel trailer attaches to the truck. It slides into the fifth wheel hitch and locks in place. KING PIN WEIGHT—The actual weight pressing down on the fifth wheel hitch by the trailer. The recommended amount of King Pin Weight is 15%-25% of the GTW,also called Pin Weight.
Page 245 Glossary PAYLOAD CAPACITY—The maximum allowable weight that can be placed in or on a vehi- cle, including cargo, passengers, fluids and fifth-wheel or conventional hitch loads. PILOT—A pilot is a small standby flame that is used to light the main burner of a propane fired appliance when the thermostat calls for heat.
Page 246 Glossary SANITIZATION—Refers to the camper’s fresh water system that has been sanitized with chlo- rine bleach before use or after storage. SHORELINE POWER CORD—This is the electrical power cord that runs from the camper to the campsite shore power outlet. SLEEPING CAPACITY WEIGHT RATING (SCWR)—The manufacturer’s designated number of sleeping positions multiplied by 154 pounds (70 kilograms).
Page 247 Glossary TRAILER BRAKES—Brakes that are built into the trailer axle systems and are activated either by electric impulse or by a surge mechanism. The overwhelming majority of RVs utilize electric trailer brakes that are actuated when the tow vehicle’s brakes are operated, or when a brake controller is manually activated.
Page 248 Glossary WEIGHT & LOAD—These terms are generally used interchangeably. For the purposes of understanding RV applications: • Vehicles have WEIGHT, which impart LOADS to tires, axles and hitches. • Scale measurements taken when weighing, are LOADS carried by the tires. The measured LOADS are used to calculate Gross Combination Weight (GCW) Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW), Gross Axle Weight (GAW), and Hitch Loads.
