ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS - HOUSE — 8
The inverter is located in a curbside
compartment and supplies 120 Volts AC power
to the front and bedroom televisions.
When shore power or generator power is
present, the inverter senses this incoming voltage
and automatically transfers to stand-by mode
(if inverting) and passes AC power supplied
by shore power or generator power through the
inverter to operate the appliances.
Operation:
Push the On/Off button (on the inverter)
to turn the inverter on/off. The green LED
will ash once per second when inverting
and glow steady when hooked to shore
power or when operating the generator.
Battery voltage must be greater than 10
Volts DC for the inverter to operate.
Ensure the inverter is off when not in use.
This will help conserve house battery
power.
NOTE:
The on/off switch will not turn the LED
off when hooked to shore power or
operating from the generator. Should
any of the following conditions occur:
low battery, high battery, AC over-load,
over-temperature or internal faults, the
inverter will shutdown and LED will
blink.
NOTE:
For complete operating instructions
consult the manufacturer’s operations
manual or visit the manufacturer’s
website at www.magnumenergy.com.
WARNING:
DO NOT operate inverter if it is
damaged and do not dismantle the
inverter. Take the inverter to a qualified
technician for service.
DIStrIButIon panel (50 amp)
House 120/240 Volt AC
The AC distribution panel is located in a
bedroom cabinet. The main AC 120/240 Volt
panel receives power from the transfer switch,
which is powered by
either shore power or the
generator. The AC power
is supplied to the 50 Amp
MAIN breaker rst. Then
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.
NOTE:
Actual panel label and circuit breakers
will vary with options and changes to the
motorhome.
WARNING:
The 120/240 Volt AC panel contains 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,
be sure the motorhome is unplugged
from shore power, the generator is not
running and the inverter is in the off
position. Certain testing procedures can
require the AC power to be on. Only
qualified personnel or personnel with
electrical backgrounds should attempt
any testing procedures.
