Transfer Switch; Generator - 240 Volt Ac - Holiday Rambler Imperial 2008 Owner's Manual

ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS - HOUSE — 8
It is important the cable remains clean.
Accumulated dust and dirt on the cable
may cause diffi culty in retracting the cord.
After cleaning and straightening, allow the
Cablemaster to retract the cable.
Check all AC and DC wiring at least once each
year to ensure corrosion-free, tight connections.
WARNING:
Before working on the electrical system,
disconnect from shore power and turn
off the Inverter/Charger. Disconnect
the negative 12 Volt DC battery cables
at the batteries. Remove rings, metal
watchbands and other metal jewelry
before working around batteries and
connectors. Use caution when working
with metal tools. If the tool contacts a
battery terminal or metal connected to
it, a short circuit could occur causing
personal injury, explosion or fire.

TRANSFER SWITCH

The transfer switch will automatically transfer
to either shore power or generator when
energized. In the event both shore and generator
power are available, generator power will
override shore power after a 30 second delay.
Once the generator is shut down, shore power
will be available after a two second delay.

The transfer switch uses electronics to monitor
voltage input for high or low voltage conditions.
If the incoming voltage from the generator or
shore power exceeds 132 AC Volts, or if voltage
drops below 102 AC Volts, the transfer switch
automatically disconnects electrical service
to prevent damage that can occur to voltage
sensitive equipment.
Located in pass-through storage bay.
The transfer switch monitors for faulty wiring
from the power pedestal and protects from
reverse polarity and the dangers of an open
neutral condition. A multi-mode surge protection
helps protect against the potential for power
surges to enter the motorhome through power
cables during electrical storms.
NOTE:
Discontinue appliance operation and
turn off auxiliary electrical loads
operated by outlets before connecting/
disconnecting shore power or starting/
stopping the generator to prevent
damage to transfer switch contacts.
