SECTION 6 - ELECTRICALSYSTEM
Be mindful of the fact that each operating appliance collectively places an added
load on your 120-volt electrical system.
An unintentional "trip" of a circuit breaker may occur if you overload the RV's
and/or campgrounds electrical system. The amperage rating of individual
appliances can be calculated by dividing appliance wattage consumed (normally
listed on the appliance) by nominal design voltage (120 for a 120-volt appliance).
For example: 1200 watts divided by 120-volts equals 10 amps.
To help prevent power surges from damaging the electrical system and its
connected devices, please follow the instructions listing below when
connecting to shore power.
Only connect the shore power cord to properly wired power receptacles.
50 amp systems: 50 amp NEMA 14-50 120 volt.
Do not connect the shore power cord to any power receptacle until you
have contacted the campground owner and/or premise attendant to verify
proper shore receptacle polarity and grounding. Polarity indicators can be
purchased in most electrical and hardware stores.
Do not use a cheater plug, adapter or extension cord to reconfigure
incoming AC power or to break the continuity of the power cord grounding
circuit.
Do not connect the power cord to an outlet that is not grounded or adapt
the power cord plug to connect to a receptacle for which it is not designed.
