Progressive Industries EMS-PT50C - Manual (Page 3)

Warnings
•
Do not exceed the rating on the EMS for any reason,
however, these devices are designed to be reduced down to
120V/15A, and still maintain full protection.
•
Do not modify the EMS in any way, this will void the
warranty, compromise protection, and could result in
possible shock, and/or a fire hazard.
• It is important to always check the pedestal power outlet for
charring; this condition means that the AC receptacle is
providing a weak connection. DO NOT USE! It could
result in possible melting of the RV power plug.
•
When running extension cords from the RV to AC power,
always use a 6-gauge cable for your 240V, 50 Amp system.
Make sure that the cable is rated for outdoor use to reduce
the risk of electric shock. Small gauge cable will have a
higher resistance and will result in a voltage loss, plus it
may result in an electrical fire.
•
Whenever servicing or installing the EMS or any other AC
powered device, make sure AC power is disconnected.
•
RV wiring is different than the wiring found in homes; the
neutral and ground conductors are isolated in the RV,
unlike in a home where they are tied together at the service
panel. The reason is: homes have a bonded ground
system, whereas RV’s do not. Therefore, never bond the
neutral and ground together for any reason. This will
create a ground fault condition, and may result in electric
shock and/or a fire hazard.
•
Never
plug the EMS into an inverter.
