Mounting the Distribution Panel

Consult a licensed electrician or an RV technician for installation assistance.

1. Select a mounting location near the shore power and battery (batteries). A minimum compartment size of 3 cubic feet is recommended.
2. Cut a rough opening (as the dimension outlined in Fig. 1) on the RV wall to allow the power center to slide in easily.

1. Push the distribution panel front cover around to the position of F" mark and rotate downwards to fully open it. [Fig. 2]

1. Loosen the screws that hold the housing at the four corners using a Phillips screwdriver. (Fig. 3)

1. Pull to remove the housing from the unit. (Fig. 4)

Installation

1. Connect the distribution panel to the battery. See 'Wiring Diagram' section on how to connect the wires.
2. Slide the distribution panel in the opening area and fix with 4 self-tapping screws (#8-18 thread) (not supplied). (Fig. 5 and Fig. 6)

1. Replace the housing to the distribution panel and tighten the screws at the four corners. (Fig. 7 and Fig. 8)

NOTE: Do not over tighten. Damage to the housing may occur which will void the warranty.

1. Test the distribution panel under full load conditions in its intended mounting location to ensure proper ventilation.

Wiring Diagram

IMPORTANT: Remember to select the proper gauge wire for the load, according to the National Electric Code (NEC) and RVIA. Be sure to use appropriate connector and strain reliefs to secure the wires to the distribution panel.

Wiring Connection

The fuse rating that the manufacturer suggests for the output fuses will be marked on the unit. Replace only with same type and rating.

NOTE: If the reverse polarity protection fuses are blown during connection, replace the fuses with the same rating as the original.

Terminal Description Max.	Temperature (°C)	Torque (In. -lbs) Wire	Gauges (AWG)
Terminal of Ground and Neutral Bar	90 25; 30; 35	10-14; 8; 6
DC Fuse Panel Lugs Positive and Negative	70 25; 32; 45	10-14; 8; 6

Care and Maintenance

Replacing Circuit Breaker

A replacement or additional circuit breaker shall be of the same manufacturer, type designation, and equal or greater interrupting rating, not to exceed 50A.

"Short-Circuit-Current" rating for the breaker should be 10,000A at 120/240 Volt AC.

UL®-Listed Main Circuit Breakers, rated for 30/50Amp 120V/240Vac

Acceptable circuit breakers are as follows:

Manufacturer Model/Cat. No./Type
Eaton BR
ITE/Siemens Type QP
Square D Type HOM

UL®-Listed Branch Circuit Breakers, rated for 120/240Vac, 20A or 15A

Acceptable circuit breakers are as follows:

Manufacturer Model/Cat. No./Type
Eaton BR
ITE/Siemens Type QP or QT
Square D Type HOMT

Replacing the Power Converter

IMPORTANT: Make sure all power is disconnected before proceeding.

If you should need to replace the power converter for any reason, follow the steps below to safely remove the converter section.

1. Remove the neutral, ground and hot wires that lead to the converter on the AC side.
2. Remove the converter output wires from the DC board, ground and positive.
3. Finally unscrew the screws that holds the metal converter plate to the plastic housing. For factory repairs, return only the converter section. Make sure you use proper packaging to ensure the product's safe arrival.

Do not replace the converter section unless the following checks have been performed:

1. Use an AC voltmeter to check for the proper voltage at the 120VAC breaker that the converter is connected to. This voltage should be between 105 and 130 volts.
2. Remove the reverse battery fuses and check the converter output from the CONVERTER GND to the CONVERTER POS terminals on the DC board. This should be 13.6VDC.
3. Check the reverse battery fuses. These fuses will only blow if the battery or DC output leads were connected reversed, even for a moment. If they are blown check the polarity of the battery connections before replacing them.
4. If the Converter output is not present and there is AC to the converter, the converter is defective.
