Title: AC wiring
Post by: DCI on November 03, 2004, 02:54:53 PM
On my new generator it has a separate circuit breaker for the A/C. Does anyone know where exactly could I pick these wires up near the generator compartment? Thought I would ask before I started taking things apart.

Hiyya DCI.

If you look inside the fuse panel (under my couch), you'll see exactly where to connect in the genny box.  There are two 15 A breakers, one for the AC, the other for everything else.  Not sure how you'd work a disconnect that way, though, so you're not feeding shore power to the genny when you're plugged in.  Just a direct connection would back-feed to it.   Seems to me you'd be better off figuring out how to feed full genny output to the "master plug" on the other side.

Good luck, Andy
