Battery Temperature Sensor

A Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) is
affixed to one of the house battery terminals
to measure battery temperature and send that
information to the inverter. When battery
temperature rises, the inverter will decrease
charge voltage to prevent boiling the
batteries. When battery temperature cools,
the inverter will raise charge voltage. Voltage
compensation with temperature variation is
necessary to keep charge voltage at optimum
values. If the BTS cord is unplugged
from the inverter, the inverter will use a
temperature default setting of 77º F./25º C.
as a reference point.
DISTRIBUTION PANELS - HOUSE 120/240
VOLT AC
The AC distribution panels are located in the
roadside overhead cockpit cabinet. The main
240 Volt AC panel receives power from the
transfer switch, which is supplied by either
shore power or the generator. The AC power is
supplied to the 50 Amp main breaker fi rst. Then
the power is supplied to the individual branch
circuit breakers. The panel label describes the
breaker layout and the item, outlet or appliance
to which they pertain.
Typical Main Panel:
Located in the roadside overhead cockpit
cabinet.

The sub panel receives AC power from the
inverter (through the inverter via shore or
generator power) and supplies power to items
which can be operated by the inverter. The AC
power produced by the inverter supplies power
to the sub panel only.
Typical Sub-panel:
Located in the roadside overhead
cockpit cabinet.
WARNING:
The 120/240 Volt AC panels contain
high voltage which can cause serious
injury or death. Before beginning any
work or testing procedures involving
the electric panels, or any of the
branch circuits, the motorhome must
be unplugged from shore power, the
060142e
generator is not running and the
inverter is in the off position. Certain
testing procedures may require the
AC power to be on. Only qualified
personnel with electrical backgrounds
should attempt any testing procedures.
