Power System

CAUTION
Make sure your power supply is properly
grounded! If your power supply to the
camper is not grounded you will experience
a dangerous shock when standing on the
ground and touching a metal portion of
your camper! Use a continuity tester to
ensure proper power supply!
30-Amp and 110-Volt Service
30-amp service is also 110-volt service, but it
is capable of running up to 30-amps of draw.
Listed below are components that might be
used in Livin' Lite Recreational Vehicles, Inc.
vehicles and the typical maximum amperage
draw each one has. This chart may help you
decide which components you can safely use
for an extended period without damage.

If you travel to an RV park that offers only 50-
amp service you will have to use an adapter to
hook up to shore power. Use of an adapter is
not recommended, but may not be avoidable.

NOTE
I
Do not use an extension cord with a
current rating less than the amperage
your rv requires. Extra extension cords
reduce the amperage and voltage being
supplied to the rv and may cause damage
to electrical components, including the
shoreline cord.
Power Converter
Your camper is equipped with an electrical
power converter that changes 110-volt power
to 12-volt power to run 12-volt powered
appliances. It gets the 110-volt power by
way of the electrical cord (shown left). Shown
here is the circuit breaker/fuse box for the
110V electrical system. Circuit breakers
and fuses protect the circuits in the vehicle.
Locate the converter and see where the fuses
are located. If you blow a fuse, turn off and
unplug any appliances in use. Unplug the
fuse. Check the fuse for breakage and replace
it with a new fuse of the proper rating.
If the fuse continues to fail, contact your nearest
dealer. NEVER REPLACE A FUSE WITH A HIGHER
RATED FUSE THAN WHAT IS DESIGNATED.
