Electrical System

Your electrical system is a combination 12-
volt and 110-volt system, every facet carefully
engineered and installed to comply with the
"National Electric Code".
The combination system consists of:
1. 12-volt automotive system – DC.
2. 110-volt outside power source – AC.
110-Volt System
This is supplied by plugging the 30 Amp power
cord into an outside receptacle (you may
need an adapter). It furnishes current to all
internal 110-volt receptacles. It also supplies
power for the 12-volt camper system through
the converter.
The 110-volt circuits are protected by circuit
breakers and will handle up to 30 rated
amps. The most common cause of a circuit
breaker to open is an overloaded circuit. If
this happens, reduce the load and reset the
breaker.
Your kitchen and exterior receptacles are
protected by a highly sensitive device known
as a "Ground Fault Interrupter," which is
designed to sense the slightest electrical
"short" at those receptacles and instantly
disconnects the current before a person can
be injured.
If you optioned the battery box and use a
battery in your camper, batteries should be
removed and stored in a warm place when not
used in your camper for an extended period of
time (i.e. more than 60 days). Mark the cables,
positive and negative, for easy identification.
Batteries are not to be stored on concrete
floors. The batteries require periodic charging
during storage. If the camper is to be stored
for a long period of time, it is recommended
that all of the batteries inside the unit be
removed from clocks, radios, smoke alarms,
etc. This will prevent unnecessary drain and
corrosion of the batteries.
I
Do not smoke or use an open flame
around batteries. Avoid making electrical
sparks near batteries. Fumes from the
batteries are combustible.
Auxiliary 12V DC
Electrical Connection
Auxiliary 12V electrical outlets are located
inside and outside the camper in order to
attach 12V devices and appliances.
Fire Safety
The possibility of fire exists in all areas of life,
and the recreational vehicle life-style is no
exception. Recreational vehicles are complex
machines. They are made up of many
materials, some of which are flammable. Like
many hazards, the possibility of fire can be
minimized. This is done by recognizing the
danger and practicing common sense safety
and maintenance habits. For safety reasons,
Livin' Lite suggests that you keep a fire
extinguisher in your unit at all times.
